Northern Community Investment Capital (NCIC), a program of New Hampshire Community Loan Fund, strives to strengthen businesses, communities, and employment opportunities throughout Vermont and New Hampshire, with a specific focus on the Northeast Kingdom and the North Country regions. NCIC helps businesses, municipalities, and nonprofits develop solutions to meet their specific needs. For nonprofits and municipalities, NCIC helps design, develop, fundraise, and oversee community and economic development projects that are favorable to the needs of the regions’ businesses and communities. For business, NCIC stimulates employers with capital, expertise and tailored innovative solutions for growth. This includes our direct lending, participation lending, grant writing, and our Small Business Cost Share Program that helps to offset costs for small businesses to hire professional consultants to assist in areas such as feasibility, planning, marketing, financial management, permitting assistance, designs, and more.

Each year our team operates a significant multi-million internal budget, while also writing and/or managing additional funding awarded to entities outside of our organization. NCIC staff are familiar with federal, state and local grant programs and the various rules and regulations that are tied to the various funding sources.
