How it Works

Providing Impact Loans to Meet the Needs of Your Community

1. Provide Impact Loans to Your Community

An Impact Loan is a 0% interest charitable loan – interest free forever.  It helps to bridge cash flow and pay emergency expenses without accruing extra fees or high-interest debt.

2. Allow a Flexible Payback to Solve for Cash Flow

Many people can’t afford to pay back loans on time because they have no savings.  Impact Loans offer flexible repayment options and terms to help your community bridge their cash flow.

3. Automatically Help Your Community Save

Repayment is set up automatically from recipient’s bank account and 10% of each payment helps build emergency savings for any unforeseen emergencies directly at your Credit Union.

Get Free From Debt

We want to empower everyone in our community to flourish and experience financial well-being.

Living just above the Federal Poverty Line is a cross-section of families and households who are struggling financially unable to meet basic needs. They must choose between paying rent or filling a needed , fixing the car or buying groceries. In fact, 67% of families in our community are falling behind financially every month.

Though not labeled as living in “poverty” under the government definition, they are nonetheless struggling financially to survive. These families are not frivolous with their money. They are employed, and yet still struggle to meet their most basic needs, forcing them to make impossible choices – deciding between quality child care or paying the rent – filling a or fixing the car.

As a solution, many people turn to Payday loans, Credit Cards, and other high-interest debt with extremely high-percentage rates and late fees, making a short-term problem a long-term burden.

They are your neighbors, friends, family members, co-workers, and those you sit next to in church. They make up almost a third of the households in America.

We have a solution. It’s called an Impact Loan.

It’s a 0% interest charitable loan – interest-free forever – with a flexible payback plan where 10% of each payment is given back to the borrower to help build emergency savings. This loan helps to bridge cash flow and pay emergency expenses without accruing extra fees or increasing high-interest debt.

This gives us an opportunity to meet the very real needs in our communities while also restoring dignity back to those receiving the funds. This is the key to prospering communities worldwide.

What Our Impacted Communities Say

Not having to worry about rent while I search for a job has really helped. I’m able to support my family in a manner that is not so burdensome to me financially. Although I am still actively searching and getting closer to acquiring income, this has helped my situation more than anything else.

One Grateful Employee

The Community Impact Fund took so much stress and worry off my shoulders and helped me get my health back on track. Compared to other places that provide support and help, this one feels the most impactful. It is the most reliable and I’m glad there is an actual person behind the screen helping.
