Center for Community Self-Help
GroupAccording to a 2005 report by Capital Research Center: :”Martin Eakes’ family of organizations,known collectively as Self-Help,has wandered far from its roots. What began as a movement to provide the poor with much-needed capital is now a set of advocacy organizations that promote policies that harm the poor and impose competitive disadvantages on other lenders. Meanwhile, Self-Help rides its tax-exempt status all the way to the bank…Eakes also uses Self-Help’s resources to form political coalitions with radical left-wing groups whose purpose is to bully banks into changing their lending practices. The groups also pressure legislatures into restricting the liberty of financial institutions.”
The Center for Community Self-Help is a member of four networks – Blueprint NC, Democracy NC, Moral Mondays, and Together NC Partnership Coalition.
