findCRA is a groundbreaking, unique way for banks to find CRA relationships in their communities. Our Community Qualifier search tool is built around a proprietary process that aggregates data from over 20 trusted government and industry sources including the IRS, FFIEC, CDFI Fund, HUD, Census Bureau, and more. We review nearly 1,400 datapoints to analyze every IRS-registered nonprofit for their alignment with the CRA. Through our process, we are able to identify the less than 10% of nonprofits that meet CRA requirements. We provide powerful search and review tools for banks to find these CRA-qualified nonprofits and reach out to them through our website.
Simultaneously, we give nonprofits the ability to claim their nonprofit listing on our website for banks to review, support and equip nonprofits to tell their CRA Story. We offer an independent CRA Certification to nonprofits that further increases the ways for bank to find them with an enhanced findCRA profile, community needs listing and tools customized for the nonprofit to use in building strong bank partnerships.
findCRA was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. We work with banks and nonprofits throughout the nation to educate, equip, and empower them for success under the requirements of the federal Community Reinvestment Act.
