It supported over 2,200 entrepreneurs with $62 million in loans in 2015. Opportunity Fund plays a critical role in supporting entrepreneurs who lack affordable financing options. In addition to providing access to capital, it offers borrowers individualized business advice and helps low-income people build savings for emergencies and education.
