FORGE, Inc. is a community-based revolving loan fund serving Northwest Arkansas.
We are a membership organization, borrowing money
from the SBA, USDA, charities, foundations, and individual investors to
lend to start-up businesses, families in need,
small farmers, and individuals denied credit by the conventional banking
system.
The Ozark Mountain
region of Northwest Arkansas has
traditionally been mostly rural and relatively poor. While the last decade has seen
significant growth in the area’s larger cities, many smaller rural
communities continue to struggle.
Industry continues to leave the area, and the current recession has
tightened lending when it is needed most.
For over 20
years we have fulfilled our mission of helping to build sustainable small
communities and we will not let our neighbors down in their time of
greatest need. We are expanding our
lending and our assets are growing.
Bottom
line, we have maintained our strength because we make good loans to good people.
