CLIMB Fund is a not-for-profit Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) whose mission is to ensure access to capital for entrepreneurs and small businesses that cannot secure traditional financing. Serving the entire state of South Carolina as the state's largest microlender, CLIMB Fund has more than 40 years of history lending to entrepreneurs who have been turned away by for-profit banks. There are numerous South Carolina businesses we’ve helped start and grow, but the most important impacts we have are providing new pathways to success and helping people realize their dreams.
