Stephen Halasnik is a Managing Partner of Financing Solutions, a direct lender to nonprofits and small businesses. Over the last 25 years, Stephen has built 7 companies and he passionately believes that every nonprofit and business should have a line of credit to turn to as a cash back up plan. That belief, learned over years of working with banks for his own business needs, drove him to start Financing Solutions so credit lines could be easier to set up and less expensive.
