THE PROBLEM

Banks blew it – big time! Every day we hear the news. The world’s economy is suffering and our government is rescuing the perpetrators of the catastrophe at the expense of its victims. We have allowed these institutions to grow too large and powerful.  They no longer consider the consequences of their actions on our communities.

WE CAN DO BETTER

Healthy, local banks and credit unions are much more transparent financial institutions than large, bureaucratic corporate banks. They are more likely to consider your concerns, reflect your values and put your money to good use in the local economy. Educating yourself about your local financial options liberates you from participating in the damaging effects of the big banking system. Go Fire Your Bank helps give you the tools to choose the right local bank or credit union for your needs and your values. Bring your money home.
