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-income people build a solid financial foundation for a better future.
HOPE provides 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. 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 40,000 people in economically distressed areas.
Based in Jackson, Mississippi, HOPE serves the four-state region of Arkansas, Louisiana,
Mississippi and Tennessee. The mission of HOPE is to:
Strengthen communities, build assets and change lives in economically
distressed areas of the three states.
HOPE does this by providing a range of financial products and services to
its members. Anyone who supports the mission of HOPE and
Enterprise
Corporation of the Delta (ECD), its primary sponsor, can become a member.
HOPE's products and services are designed to both serve individuals and
organizations in economically distressed areas and to encourage like-minded
investors to make their deposits with HOPE.
HOPE and ECD also work together to deliver financial products to the region.
ECD is a non-profit community development financial institution.
