Pacific Northwest Tribal Lending, better known as Lummi CDFI is a lending entity that began with the Lummi Nation but has since expanded their reach to other Tribes in Northwest Washington. With their project 2025 PNTL Services for Native Producers, Harvesters, and Fishers, this CDFI intends to enhance the capital access infrastructure through strategic community projects and the expansion of their revolving loan fund (RLF). Lummi CDFI recognizes that in order to mitigate the uncertain economic conditions that exist today, it will require strategic but flexible fiscal maneuvers. This lender plans to address the dual challenges of communities that lack training to successfully navigate current financial instruments and the chronic lack of resources by providing a comprehensive suite of services leading to direct access to capital, but with a focus on Tribal fishers.
