Alabama
Small businesses are central to Alabama’s economy—and to its residents. Alabama’s more than 75,000 small businesses account for half of all private sector employment. In greater Birmingham alone, over 17,000 small businesses employ a total of more than 76,000 workers.
In Alabama, TruFund targets construction, retail, nonprofit organizations, and professional service small businesses in historically underserved low- to moderate-income communities across the state, with a targeted focus to lend in the urban areas of Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery, Tuscaloosa, and Mobile. TruFund also targets the rural communities where 30.9 percent of its residents live below the poverty line and 13.3 percent of the population is unemployed—significantly higher than the state average of 9.3 percent.
Alabama’s number of businesses is among the lowest in the nation—only 3.5 percent of businesses in the state.
Trufund Financial Services, Inc. has been available to offer needed financing at a critical time—and also boost the number of successful small businesses. We are helping Alabama businesses take advantage of key opportunities through expansion and hiring.
