10 Additional Programs Credit Builder Loans A good credit score is an essential asset in the American economy. Many people may have a thin or damaged credit profile that makes it difficult for them to rent an apartment, get a credit card or loan, and it can even impact their ability to get certain types of jobs. Community Capital offers a small dollar loan to those who want to build their credit profile. By reporting the borrower s on time payments to the credit reporting agencies each month, the borrower builds a stronger credit profile and can improve their credit score. This program is offered in collaboration with community partners.
