ABOUT:

ACCION OPPORTUNITY FUND IS AN UNPARALLELED FINANCIAL SUPPORT SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS IN THE US WITH ACCESS TO CAPITAL, NETWORKS, AND COACHING.

Small business owners uplift communities and anchor local economies, while creating opportunities for themselves, their families, their employees, and our neighborhoods. Yet entrepreneurs who are people of color, women, and low-to-moderate income often struggle to secure capital and resources, as they are systematically shut out from traditional financing. In 2020, Accion Opportunity Fund was formed as Accion U.S. Network and Opportunity Fund came together. Together, we fight for an inclusive and accessible financial system so small business owners of all identities can thrive.

At Accion Opportunity Fund we, offer support for small business owners by providing them with fairly priced loans, educational resources, coaching, and support networks in English and Spanish. Accion Opportunity Fund Community Development is the lending arm of Accion Opportunity Fund.
