Community First Fund + FINANTA is a nonprofit financial services organization formed by the merger of two Pennsylvania-based community development financial institutions. Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, it supports diverse local communities by providing capital along with technical assistance, business consulting, and homeownership counseling. Its work targets residents and small businesses in Philadelphia, addressing affordable housing, access to essential resources such as food and healthcare, and opportunities for education and job creation. The two organizations merged in May 2020, creating a larger nonprofit lender focused on local development in Philadelphia. In August 2024, Lydia Walker was promoted to senior vice president and chief development and impact officer.
