Community Finance Summit 2024


 

December 10 -12th | Durham, North Carolina

Formerly known as the Community Development Banking Seminar, this three-day gathering is a chance to engage with industry peers and to learn from and with Self-Help senior staff. We'll share information on Self-Help's community finance model and discuss how it has evolved over time in scope, scale and strategy. You'll get a chance to reflect on lessons learned from Self-Help's experiences while exploring the opportunities and challenges facing your own organization and exchanging ideas with fellow summit participants.

This year’s theme is "Cultivating Innovation from Emerging Opportunities" which reflects the potential for industry transformation spurred by the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (of which Self-Help is a sub-awardee) and other federal funding programs. Against the backdrop of this and other trends, the 2024 Community Finance Summit will provide space for practitioners, funders, and other allies to explore how existing models of community development finance can best be adapted to address a widening range of issues facing the communities we serve.

 

Join us to connect with industry peers and learn more about Self-Help's community development model.
