About Michiana Area Currency
Michiana Community Currency is a nonprofit association of Michiana residents who have volunteered to help build a community currency for our region. We began meeting and researching this idea in 2006 and have stepped up our efforts in response to the growing economic crisis. We will officially launch the new local currency soon!
Here's how it works:
1) We're now working to build a network of a minimum of 250 individuals and 50 locally owned businesses who agree to accept our community currency (when it is available) in exchange for some good or service. To help us build the network of backers of our local currency, contact us at info@michianacurrency.org.
2) We begin printing and circulating the money to this network once the currency is launched. Watch the Web site for some exciting new developments.
