Self-Help is a family of nonprofit organizations whose mission is to create and protect ownership and economic opportunity for all. Since Self-Help's founding in 1980, it has grown to include two credit unions, a loan fund, and a research and policy development group that supports those outside of the economic mainstream. Specifically, we: * Help borrowers build wealth by providing fair and responsible mortgages and small business loans in North Carolina, California and other parts of the nation. * Strengthen under-served communities by financing affordable housing, childcare centers, public charter schools, faith-based organizations, and community-focused commercial real estate projects. * Research and report on financial markets to support policies and industry practices that lower the cost of poverty and promote ownership.

Across Virginia, ValleyStar Credit Union has served businesses and families like yours since 1953. We want to make banking and managing your finances as easy and convenient as possible. We help you get beyond the dry language of mortgages, loans, accounts and credit cards to focus on what you really care about – the house you’d love to own, the bigger car, the credit card that works with your lifestyle, reaching that goal of a law degree, owning a small business or a secure retirement. If you can dream it, we can help you achieve it. For more information, visit valleystar.org. We'd love to speak with you.
