On July 2, MMA and Mennonite Economic Development Associates launched the OneWorld Community Investment Program, a new way for individual and institutional investors with as little as $1,000 to create economic opportunity and hope in the United States and internationally.

“Around the world, millions of people can’t access capital at affordable rates, which exacerbates the growing gap between the rich and poor,” said John Liechty, MMA senior vice president of financial services. “An investment in OneWorld helps close this gap by channeling flexible, affordable capital to areas under served by traditional financial institutions.”
