Lending Impact

Loan Portfolio

Our commitment to supporting the full range of nonprofits across the Midwest provides our investors with a well-secured and diversified loan portfolio. These graphs reflect the percentage of dollars in IFF’s portfolio of loans—which, as of Dec. 31, 2025, included 758 loans totaling $680.82 million.

Financial Performance

Ensuring a financially strong IFF is key to maximizing our ability to best deliver on our mission. In 2025, IFF continued to maintain a strong track record of performance. Rated four-star, AAA+ from AERIS, IFF is one of the handful of CDFIs in the country to merit this top rating for both impact and financial condition.

Managed Assets

Strong nonprofits are essential to strong communities, and the ability of nonprofits to own their facilities is a key part of that equation. Most of the time, that’s where we start—our lending and consulting tools are designed to support nonprofits ready to own facilities.

Sometimes, IFF will temporarily own facilities during a predevelopment or construction phase as permanent financing is acquired—or, a bit longer as operations stabilize—before transferring them back to local hands. Other times, and always at the direction of the community, IFF acts as a permanent, long-term owner where no other potential owner is present or ready, but the community demand for the facility is strong.

IFF now owns and/or manages nearly three-quarters of a million square feet of real estate across our footprint.

Community Development Solutions and Home First

IFF serves as a real estate developer to launch community-driven projects. We work closely with community development partners to identify gaps where impactful projects would not happen through traditional development avenues. In 2025, driven by our equitable community development principles, IFF completed nine project milestones and had five projects under development, representing a total of over 131,000 square feet and more than $105 million in value.
