Business Impact NW

Our team of business coaches, trainers, and loan officers provide mission-based support & lending to a targeted population of business owners including BIPOC, women, rural, Veterans, LGBTQ+, and immigrants and refugees across the Pacific Northwest. Business Impact NW has expanded the opportunity for business success, decreased unemployment, and stimulated the economic life of local communities since our founding 1997.

Starting small, local business is a powerful way to end the cycle of poverty for individuals and families, and bring jobs and economic growth to communities. Providing a robust, multi-faceted network of resources, expert support, and capital is the bridge that small business entrepreneurs need to succeed.

Through investors, donors, and corporate funders, we can provide mission-driven lending to those underserved by traditional lending institutions and free business technical assistance to anyone who wishes to start or grow their own business.
