About Us

Community Lenders, formed in 1999, provides financing for community redevelopment and revitalization projects in Bucks, Chester, Delaware,Lehigh, Montgomery, Northampton and Philadelphia counties. With the strength of our 30 member banks we’ve loaned more than $27 million to help serve 38 agencies and helped provide homes for more than 800 low income residents or families.

The Community Lenders Community Development Corporation will promote and facilitate community revitalization through the financing of, and investment in, housing and community development activities, which will address the needs of low and moderate-income persons and areas throughout Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Lehigh, Montgomery, Northampton and Philadelphia counties, with specific emphasis on those communities where the member banks are located.
