Opportunity Resource Fund

OppFund's history of successful lending spans more than 39 years. Commitment and diligence have earned OppFund a reputation as a solid, dependable, and flexible lender and development services provider throughout the state of Michigan. As a recognized Michigan lender, OppFund seeks collaboration opportunities and has strong relationships and positive partnerships with key concerns in Michigan's economic community. Since 1985, OppFund has loaned more than $77.3 million providing 422 real estate development, 224 small business, 11 consumer, 265 Payroll Protection Program loans under the CARES Act, and 466 homeownership loans. These loans have leveraged more than $190 million from public and private investments helping to create or maintain 3,204 units of affordable housing, 1914 jobs, 678 new or safer housing for predominantly low and moderate income families and ensuring at least 125 children are safer in organized daycare facilities. OppFund loans empower people throughout the state of Michigan.

OppFund relies upon its Board-approved Strategic Plan in its continuing quest to act as a catalyst for change to benefit and strengthen Michigan communities. The Strategic Plan includes lending goals to increase financing for the creation, renovation, and/or preservation of affordable housing, assist individual homeowners, and help to fuel Michigan's economy with the creation of jobs. OppFund launched the Justice Fund Initiative to better serve our minority borrowers which includes a full campus without walls and full wrap-around technical support services. We believe this is a positive step in eliminating the racial wealth gap.
