“BBIF’s Partnership with Fifth Third has empowered us to invest in companies like CCU who provide imperative social services like education to underserved communities”. – Inez Long, President/CEO, BBIF
The NMTC financing of $1.3 million dollars came from an allocation given to BBIF by Fifth Third Bank in 2018. In addition to this below market rate loan, BBIF provided a business loan of approximately $100,000 to help the company with improvements related to hurricane resiliency.
