Mission

The water finance exchange's (wfx) mission is to help communities access funding, financing, and expertise to implement resilient, sustainable, and equitable water infrastructure solutions. Wfx serves as a neutral partner for communities to provide support from project conception to implementation. Wfx believes that new, innovative models are necessary to meet the needs of communities around the country. These strategies must be holistic, integrating affordable community financing with the stewardship of water resources.

Programs

2 programs

Project development. Wfx does not intend to be a primary funder of water infrastructure; rather, its finance activities are narrowly designed to fill community gaps that are preventing full financing from occurring. Wfx connects communities to the right expertise and accessible financial resources which help to support pre-development and de-risk projects.

Expenses: $605K

Partnership development (facilitate investment and build self-supporting networks). Wfx believes that it can support the efforts of smaller communities to access funding by assembling the needed expertise, build trusted relationships with communities, complete projects, and learn and disseminate information about recurring issues and solutions that allow for scaling-up funding of similarly situated communities and regional initiatives that would otherwise be unavailable. Wfx will continue to serve as a national platform to accelerate the adoption of best practices, increase the ability of smaller communities to access financing, and close the water infrastructure equity gap for small and rural communities.
