Coming Together
We don't know many people who like their banks.
We've heard the words "necessary evil" more than we'd care to admit.
But why does it have to be like that?
After all, if they didn't have our money, they wouldn't be able to do what they did, and make the kinds of profits they do.
So who's with us?
Self Help Credit union is a different kind of bank, dedicated to developing communities through Home & Small Business Lending, Facilities Lending, Real Estate Development and Socially Responsible Investments.
They support affordable housing, focusing on several neighborhoods in North Carolina for now, and can even point you to a full-service credit union, if you'd prefer to do your banking in person.
If you'd prefer to find a credit union in your area, try Credit Unions Online, which can help bring more of a sense of belonging to your financial life, as well as increased ownership of your world.
