Diana Smith - President - Colorado Enterprise Fund
Diana Smith is the President of the Colorado Enterprise Fund, a non-profit community development financial-institution founded in 1976. CEF is designed to help people start or expand their small businesses by making loans to businesses that can?t get financing from traditional sources. In addition, they provide management assistance to help entrepreneurs improve their business skills and knowledge.
CEF has helped hundreds of businesses including bakeries, beauty salons, flower shops and child care centers. Their loans have financed grocery stores, trucking firms, auto detailers, and printing companies. They have assisted manufacturers of children?s items, food products, sports apparel and greeting cards. Maybe they can help you, as well.
Their loan programs bridge the gap for businesses that might qualify for a bank loan someday, but need more time before they?re ready.
