OpenIDEO Financial Empowerment Challenge Intro Video from IDEO on Vimeo.
The wellbeing of communities depends on the wellbeing of their members – and financial stability is at the core of our potential to thrive. Yet all too often, individuals and families aren’t connected with the basic financial services, educational resources and dedicated support they need to make choices that will lead to healthier lives and stronger communities. In our Financial Empowerment Challenge, sponsored by the 3,500 credit unions that form CO-OP Financial Services, and MasterCard, we’ll explore how we might harness the inherent power of our communities to ensure everyone has access to the knowledge and resources that lead to better financial futures.
