The doors in Orleans Parish.

The CDFIs, credit unions, and microlenders that actually say yes — county by county, in two languages. We are not a lender. Nobody paid to be listed. And where a county has no good doors, we say so.

No agenda

We do not ask for your name, your email, or your number. Nothing on this page changes based on who you are.

Based here vs. serves here

A door is headquartered here when its head office sits inside the county line. The rest are based elsewhere and keep a branch you can walk into. We list both, and we label which is which.

Where this comes from

Every institution on this page comes from public federal data — the CDFI Fund certified list (Jan 2026), NCUA credit union data (Mar 2026), and the SBA microloan intermediary list — plus a short national tier we verified by hand. No listing is paid.

WHO SAYS YES HERE

9CDFIs

Certified by the U.S. Treasury to lend where a bank will not. Nonprofit, patient, and used to a file that is not clean.

Epic Credit Union · Hope Credit Union

26Credit unions

Owned by their members, not by shareholders. They look at your whole story rather than a score, and that is the difference when a bank says no.
