This local story of a neighborhood fighting to save its local bank branch illustrates the challenges communities (primarily communities of color) face in accessing quality financial options. The unbanked pay up to 10% of their annual income to access their money (through payday lenders and check cashing stores). These banks are necessary.

We are excited to invite our community to join us in a conversation with Mehrsa Baradaran on October 23rd! She will be sharing insights form her book, "How the Other Half Banks." So many of our borrowers are underbanked and/or come to HFLA to get out of their predatory loans. Her work speaks directly to the challenges our borrowers face when trying to find alternatives to mainstream banks or predatory lenders. Please join us!
