Impact Investing Group is a University of Michigan-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit that seeks to provide flexible business loans to Detroit-based small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Loans will be a range from $1000 to $5,000 at the prime rate + 1% interest rate for a 3 year repayment term. Before you can receive a loan, a team will examine your business during a 3 month review process. We will NOT ask for credit or collateral and can offer flexible financing opportunities.
If your business passes this stage and is awarded the nonprofit loan, the funds will be disbursed to you in January 2024. Your business will also be eligible for possible reinvestment (secondary loan), following a secondary review process and a properly maintained relationship with Impact Investing Group. In addition, you will have access to our consulting services and guidance at a minimum for the duration of your loan.
All information in this application will remain confidential.
