Impact-Centered Lending
You’ve invested the time and effort into the vision. Now you're ready to scale but unsure where to start. Accessing the capital to grow your business shouldn’t be the barrier standing in your way.
That’s where the Revolving Loan Fund comes in.
Our fund takes a creative approach to capital access. It exists to expand financing options beyond those provided by traditional banks, offering flexible structures designed to meet businesses where they are. We believe your business deserves a pathway tailored for your unique needs.
We are a solutions-based lender and an emerging Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) committed to impact investing. Through creative financing models, subprime interest rates, longer repayment terms, and wraparound support, we help founders secure the capital needed to move forward — without predatory terms or unnecessary barriers.
The Revolving Loan Fund is not a bank, nor a replacement for traditional financing. Instead, we serve as a bridge — closing gaps, strengthening credit readiness, and positioning entrepreneurs for long-term success across the broader financial ecosystem.
In addition to customized loans, we offer free technical assistance, helping founders understand their financial options, prepare for future lending opportunities, and build stronger, more resilient businesses.
You’ve done the hard work.
You’re ready to grow.

Gap Funding

Revenue-Based Financing
A loan where you receive capital in exchange for a percentage of future revenue. Unlike a traditional loan, RBF does not require fixed monthly payments, so payments are lower during slow periods and higher during higher revenue periods.
The Value of Partnership
Growing a business or stepping into ethical real estate development takes a vision, but it also takes access to capital. And when traditional financing feels out of reach, partnerships become the key to opening new doors.
That’s why the Revolving Loan Fund works alongside banks and mission-aligned investors through a Loan Participation Program. This model allows us to pair our flexible, creative financing with the strength of other established lenders — giving you more options and increasing the amount of cash available to move your project or business forward.
Here’s how it works in simple terms:
Multiple lenders come together to fund a single loan.
One institution serves as the “lead lender,” and the others share in the investment. This spreads risk, increases impact, and expands what’s possible for you as the borrower.
For our financial partners, this collaboration also supports Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) credit opportunities, helping institutions meet their commitments to community investment while making meaningful contributions to Northeast OKC’s economic growth.
For you, it means:
-
More flexible lending options
-
Increased access to creative capital
-
A clearer pathway to future bank financing
-
Support from an ecosystem committed to your success
The Revolving Loan Fund is here to bridge the gap, connecting you to lenders and investors who believe in community impact and want to help remove barriers to capital.
