Locus (formerly VCC)

About

Locus is a community development financial institution (CDFI), which means we focus our lending activity in places where the capital system is not working for everyone. Whether it’s a small business, housing development, solar array, or neighborhood market, the projects we finance are making a real impact in communities where people live, work, and raise their families.
