If you have a good idea, your business deserves a fair shot.

At Partner Community Capital (PCAP), we help small businesses get the capital and other resources they need but can’t access. We deliver flexible, affordable loans to borrowers in underserved communities. And, we connect clients to strategic advisory services so they can make the best use of our capital.

Lending, with a helping hand.

To be truly successful, you need a lending partner that rolls up their sleeves and helps. Along with your loan, we can also connect you to valuable business advisory services to help your business flourish and grow.

Financing that meets you where you're at.

Lending and support that grows with you.
