The mission of Denkyem is simple: provide access to affordable loans for Black-owned businesses.
The process is simple: a straightforward form. Clear and transparent verification and a support system personalized to each client.
So when Denkyem decided to allow for philanthropic investments to further our purpose, simplicity was important.
That’s why we’ve partnered with Realize Impact. Realize Impact helps make impact investing simple. As a 501(c)(3), they are able to accept donations on behalf of organizations like ours.
They have made a recoverable grant for Denkyem, providing low-cost capital which can then be used for low-cost loans. As the money is recovered, the funds will be recycled through as new loans or other charitable contributions.
