Lending Circles
In countries all over the world, informal lending circles bring community members together to lend and borrow money. From the tandas and cundinas of Mexico to the hui of Asia, nearly every culture has a system for peer-to-peer lending.

Prepaid Debit Cards
Without a bank account, families pay a premium to use check cashing services, losing their hard-earned income to these high service fee providers. What’s preventing them from joining the financial mainstream? Often lacking financial role models of their own, unbanked individuals can find banks intimidating, may be unable to meet minimum balances, and worry about overdraft fees or fines.

VITA
This free program provides expert tax preparation assistance through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. Our trained team members will ensure you claim all eligible state and federal tax benefits, maximizing your refund and financial security.
