Consumer Loan Program

Consumer Loan Program

Chi Ishobak understands that traditional lending institutions (banks, credit unions, etc.) may not be an option for everyone. It is Chi Ishobak’s goal to provide Tribal Citizens with an avenue other than payday loans or predatory lending organizations with high-interest rates for automobile purchases and credit building efforts. This program is designed not only for immediate transportation needs but also for long-term family capacity building.
