EO Microlending
Small Personal and Emergency Loans
EO's mission-oriented microlending initiative empowers individuals, families, and communities to accumulate assets, acquire knowledge, and enhance creditworthiness. By offering modest personal loans up to $1,500 and small business loans up to $50,000, our program aims to provide support to those facing precarious circumstances. Whether you're struggling with rent payments, coping with unexpected medical bills, dealing with a vehicle breakdown, or experiencing a financial emergency, reach out to us for assistance. These adaptable credit-builder loans not only address immediate needs but also contribute to the improvement of credit scores, as EO reports lending activities to the three major credit bureaus. Timely repayment of loans positively influences credit reports.
According to United Way, roughly 11% of Idahoans are living below the federal poverty line. An additional 32% are still unable to balance a basic household budget. Many individuals and families in emergency situations often resort to payday lending sources with exorbitant interest rates averaging 500%, leading to a cycle of unsustainable debt.
