Judith Anderson, PhD., Director, Western Institute of Leadership

Designation

"Funding the Gap found the best lender for us, advocated for us as we negotiated terms, and helped close our short-term construction loan and long-term financing package at the same time. FTG has our highest recommendation to help any charter through the highly technical process of facility financing." 

Craig Drezek, Executive Director, Highville Charter School

Designation

"Locating a facility was a daunting challenge in itself but locating and securing the financing for such a project truly became the challenge we had to overcome. It wasn't until we engaged Funding the Gap to advise us that we finally obtained an approved loan with flexible terms. As a result, this August our students will occupy a beautiful, newly renovated, 115,000 square foot school building!"
