Michiana Area Currency is working to revitalize the downtown areas in South Bend and nearby towns, and to enrich community life in our region by developing a “community currency” to serve this region.
We are a nonprofit association consisting of residents of the South Bend area that want to invest in the local economy. By placing value on local good and services, community currencies can give our cities more control over our choices of jobs and the quality of life in our community. We would love to have you join our team in making Michiana Area Currency a reality.
We are working to lay the groundwork for our community currency initiative. In the meantime, though, people can begin to test out the ideas behind local currency by participating in our skills and services database. Find local people who need work and who can provide skills and services you may need. Encourage those you know who are un- or under-employed to join the Michiana Area Currency network and get our community working again!
