What We Offer

CGF offers three loan types: Enterprise, Immigration and DoubleGreen Loans:
Business loans are $1,000-$5,000 for individuals loans and $500-$2,000 for group loans, and are for low and moderate income entrepreneurs that want to start or expand a micro or small business.  Immigration loans are $875, and cover the cost of applying to become a United States citizen.  Loan terms are 1 year.  Both loans carry a 15% interest rate + an $8 application fee.  In addition, we have a Green Credit Builder loan that covers the cost of purchasing and installing a programmable thermostat in the borrower’s place of residence.  The $200 loan is paid back in 12 payments of $17 and comes with training on strategies for building credit and saving energy.
