Hope Community Credit Union is not your ordinary credit union.
Started in 1995 as a small church project with big dreams, HOPE is
a community development credit union that helps low- and
moderate-income people build a solid financial foundation for a
better future.
Based in Jackson, Mississippi, HOPE serves the four-state region of
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee. HOPE's mission is
to strengthen communities, build assets and improve lives in
economically distressed areas of the four states.
HOPE provides access to a broad range of responsible and
affordable financial services, such as checking and savings
accounts, loans, and financial literacy workshops, that help
low-wealth individuals, families, and communities secure their
futures. HOPE's products and services are designed to meet the
needs of both individuals and organizations in underserved areas
and to encourage like-minded investors to make their deposits with
HOPE.
Since 1994 HOPE and its sponsor, the Enterprise Corporation of
the Delta, have generated over $1 billion in financing and brought
economic opportunities to more than 70,000 people in economically
distressed areas across the Mid South.
Anyone who supports the mission of HOPE and its primary sponsor, Enterprise Corporation of the Delta (ECD), can
become a member. ECD is a nonprofit community development financial
institution.
