Congratulations to CFCAR Annual Sponsor Chris Cucci, CCIM, EVP | Chief Strategy Officer, with Climate First Bank!

Climate First Bank was awarded Tearsheet’s Bank Lender of the Year for its exceptional growth and dedication to impact-driven finance.

Surpassing $850 million in assets in just over three years, it stands as the fastest-growing new U.S. bank since 2009.

Climate First Bank strategically invests in community initiatives such as renewable energy, affordable housing, and worker-owned cooperatives.

Through a partnership with OneEthos, the bank has originated over $150 million in solar lending within two years, setting a high standard in sustainable financing and filling critical market gaps left by larger institutions.
