American Nonprofits (AN) is a California-based Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) founded by nonprofit sector leaders to tackle the finance, credit, and infrastructure gaps that keep small, often BIPOC-led organizations from thriving — particularly those under $1 million in revenue that traditional lenders typically pass over.

Through its Bridge-to-Bridge Loan Fund, AN offers unsecured, low-cost, short-term cash flow loans that help nonprofits cover the gap between expenses and incoming grants or contracts, no collateral or board guarantee required. 

At its core, AN believes thin margins shouldn't determine which organizations thrive and that investing in nonprofit financial health is an investment in communities served.
