TimelyBorrow, is a community success story because we have shown that, as a community, we are capable of achieving financial autonomy and we don't have to rely on the traditional financial system to help us achieve our financial goals. 

 

People Helping People: The TimelyBorrow Manifesto

The financial system has failed most Americans by not requiring banks to provide sufficient interest returns on their savings accounts and also denying everyday hardworking people access to short-term cash loans when an emergency occurs and they need a financial assistance. Instead, many of our community members'needs have been ignored and roadblocks to borrowing constructed like credit checks, extraordinarily high interest rates, and hidden fees. TimelyBorrow has created something different. Something more human. We went back to the basics, creating a community where people could support each other financially by demonstrating good character and values within our community. We call this community finance.

 

Our Stance

People should be able to help people when they are in need and have no place to turn to for help. We should be able to transact with each other directly; without any interference from banks or government entities. We should also be able to benefit and profit from the private community finance systems we create.

We believe everyone has a right to support their fellow humans and benefit equally from our country's financial system. This is an undeniable human right. It should not be reserved for rich institutions or wealthy individuals. This is the core of TimelyBorrow's mission. People in the community directly helping and supporting the people in their community.
