In 2000, NFF was invited by funders of United Way for Southeastern Michigan ("UWSEM") to partner with UWSEM to help nonprofits successfully plan and manage their facilities projects through access to technical and financial assistance. This partnership, known as the Nonprofit Facilities Center ("NFC"), combined UWSEM's experience in raising and allocating resources to meet community needs, and NFF's range of financial tools and advice on nonprofit financial, business management, and growth needs. Over the five-year partnership, UWSEM and NFF together invested more than $150 million in the capital needs of Southeastern Michigan-based nonprofit organizations.
NFF and UWSEM have worked together to bring NFF's Nonprofit Business Analysis, Building For the FutureSM, and loan products to Southeastern Michigan nonprofits. The NFF Midwest office serves Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and other parts of the Midwest.
