Virginia Community Capital, parent of Community Capital Bank of Virginia, is an organization with an uncommon history and exceptional impact. Their story starts in 2005, when Governor Mark Warner (D-Va.) proposed a measure to send more capital to distressed areas of Virginia by granting $15 million in housing and small business loan fund assets to a CDFI. Today, projects completed with VCC loans have created 2,066 jobs and retained 1,098 jobs; created or preserved 4,824 affordable housing units; and built or improved 1.9 million square feet of commercial space. “We’re testing out a new capital model that says you can do business and you can do good,” said VCC CEO and CDBA Chair Jane Henderson.
