About the company
Cen-Tex Certified Development Corporation, doing business as Cen-Tex Certified Development Corp, is a tax-exempt non-profit community development corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas that has been registered to receive federal awards since April 2005. As a Hispanic American-owned entity and certified Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), Cen-Tex serves as a prime recipient of federal grant funding focused on economic development and financial services in rural and underserved communities. The organization specializes in providing technical assistance, business development services, and financial products to support job creation, small business growth, and access to affordable capital in low-income, high-unemployment areas across Texas.
Cen-Tex's federal grant award history demonstrates a sustained commitment to community development financing and rural economic revitalization through multiple funding streams administered by the Department of the Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions Fund and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Business Cooperative Services. The organization received a $1,826,265 CDFI Rapid Response Program grant in June 2021 to address pandemic-related economic impacts, a $280,000 Small Dollar Loan Program grant in September 2021 to establish loan loss reserves and support technology infrastructure for small dollar lending to unbanked and underbanked populations, and a supplementary CDFI base financial assistance award in December 2021 to build financial capacity and serve eligible rural and urban markets. Additionally, Cen-Tex received a $100,000 Rural Business Development Grant in September 2025 to promote sustainable economic development and provide business development services in rural Texas communities. Beyond its prime grant activities, Cen-Tex partners as a sub-grantee under the Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation to deliver housing counseling services through the HUD Comprehensive Housing Counseling Program, as evidenced by its September 2024 sub-award designation.
