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 $300 million in financing and brought economic opportunities to more
than 30,000 people in economically distressed areas.
Based in Jackson, Mississippi, HOPE serves the three state region of Arkansas, Louisiana
and Mississippi. 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.
