Our communities are at the heart of everything we do.

As a Community Development Entity (CDE), we share a common mission of stimulating economic job growth by financing local businesses, creating jobs, and rebuilding neighborhoods.

Legacy Economic Growth Fund (LEGF) is a Community Development Entity (CDE), with New Markets Tax Credit authority. Borrowers can receive subsidized loan terms in the New Markets Tax Credit financing program. Within this program, borrowers who qualify may be eligible for one of the two NMTC products: Small-Dollar Loan Pool structure ($200,000-$4,000,000) and the Direct Leveraged structure ($6,000,000+).

We’re Fulfilling Our Mission To Spur Economic Growth In Rural & Underserved Areas.

Legacy Economic Growth Fund was awarded a total of$1BSMM in allocation in the last three NMTC rounds. This allocation was made possible because of LEGF's designation as a Community Development Entity (CDE), with a mission to spur economic vitalization in rural and underserved areas.

LEGF uses the New Markets Tax Credit program to help small businesses and finance projects related to industrial/manufacturing, commercial offices, and healthcare.* LEGF is a nationwide CDE primarily serving Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas. LEGF projects must be located in qualifying census tracts determined by CDFI Fund Mapping tool, in addition to qualification by CDE/Consulting staff at LEGF. The projects funded through LEGF's New Market Tax Credit are creating jobs in rural communities, providing goods and services and improving healthcare to low-income areas.

*Some flexibility with loan pool product.
