Lending Circles

MAAC’s Lending Circles turn a common community practice into a credit-building activity. Lending Circles are formed between 6-12 people, with a zero-interest loan amount from $300 to $2400. Each month, a new member of the Lending circle receives the loan until everyone in the circle gets their turn. Monthly installment payments are reported to all three major credit bureaus.
