[CircleUp] Native CDFI Announces CDFI Fund Award: CPCDC Press Release

[Lisa Wagner]

Way to go, Kristi and CPCDC!!! Not only is this a great accomplishment for
CPCDC, but it also freed up additional dollars under the NACA program for
more Native CDFI's to receive funding (the funding you didn't get, but would
have had you applied under NACA). You guys are terrific! Congratulations and
thanks.
