Community investing to bolster your returns
May 28, 2006 2:17 AM

Looking for alternative places to put your money? There's no better place to keep your money than locally!

As they say over at Ideal Bite, "Community investing finances loans for responsible wannabe homeowners and small businesses who might not qualify for traditional loans. Sit back and reap the returns while directly helping at the local level."

Here are a few places to look when thinking about investing locally:

1) One Percent in Community Investing Campaign - move just 1% of your portfolio into Community Investments and create a whole lotta change.

2) Community Investing Center - find everything you could ever care to know about Community Investing in one place.

3) Comunity Investment Impact Calculator - gauge the impact your investment could have for underserved populations.

4) The Calvert Foundation - invest without having to choose between your wallet and your soul.

5) Shorebank - another popular option.

Think Globally, Invest Locally!
