Self-Help is a family of nonprofit organizations whose mission is to create and protect ownership and economic opportunity for all. Since Self-Help's founding in 1980, it has grown to include two credit unions, a loan fund, and a research and policy development group that supports those outside of the economic mainstream.
Specifically, we:
* Help borrowers build wealth by providing fair and responsible mortgages and small business loans in North Carolina, California and other parts of the nation.
* Strengthen under-served communities by financing affordable housing, childcare centers, public charter schools, faith-based organizations, and community-focused commercial real estate projects.
* Research and report on financial markets to support policies and industry practices that lower the cost of poverty and promote ownership.
