Housing

ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Providing much needed financing to small businesses and nonprofits, as well as, introducing innovative systems to promote private investment in early stage businesses.

How Can We Help You?

Need a loan for your business?

Looking for a new school for your child?

"I can’t thank CIC enough for giving me the opportunity to show what I can do as a business. I wouldn’t have been able to open my business without the loan I received."
