Holtsoi Trucking - Crownpoint

In 2003, Erwin & Marilynn Holtsoi were ready to start their own trucking business on the Navajo Nation. They qualified for the Navajo preference list and knew there was a lot of opportunity for independent contractors to haul hay, corn, and potatoes for the Navajo Agricultural Products Industry. All they needed was a truck and trailer to do the work. To finance it the Holtsois worked with loan officer Cathy Sorenson to obtain a small loan to buy a pre-owned truck and flatbed trailer. In 2007, needing a bigger truck to make longer hauls, the Holtsois obtained a second loan to purchase a brand new Peterbilt truck.

Perez Collision - Albuquerque

Aaron Perez and Jordan Perez, brothers and owners of Perez Collision Center, have been clients of The Loan Fund since 2005. During this period, the North Valley bodyshop’s sales increased seventeenfold, enabling the Perezes to create 10 new jobs. Aaron Perez attributes the growth to “our persistence and doing our best to serve our customers — and to businesses that trust in our work ethics, such as The Loan Fund.”

Magic Mobile Home Supply - ABQ & Las Cruces

Millie's Assisted Living Center - Silver City

Love and Care for the "Silver" Generation. Millie's Center has obtained two loans from The Loan Fund. The first was to pay off an interest-only mortgage on the property. “We had exhausted all local resources. The Loan Fund provided invaluable help.” Their second loan allowed Carley to purchase half a city block next to Millie’s. “We were already using it as a garden and walkway. I want to make a nice park for our residents.”

Working Classroom - Albuquerque

Working Classroom is a nonprofit that provides academic and artistic education to talented young artists and actors from historically ignored communities.“The arts both mirror who we are as a nation and help us interpret where we are headed and what we want to become,” says Nan Elsasser, founder of Working Classroom. "As long as some communities are invisible or underrepresented, the reflection is distorted and the conversation is incomplete."

Jalapeño's - Santa Fe

With our loan, Raul purchased a cart and started selling “something I really knew how to make and other people didn’t:” tortas, a meat sandwich served on a crusty, oblong white sandwich roll. Raul used Mama Lucia’s meat marinade recipes, the tortas began “selling like crazy,” and he had to enlist his cousin to help. Inspired to open a restaurant, he asked us again for assistance. Our second loan in 2009 helped Raul pay off the first loan in full and launch Jalapeño’s.
