MEMBER PROFILE

NorthStar House - Elliot Martin, Lee Hamilton and Jed Ashton

At NorthStar House, we use as many local, organic vegetables and meats as we can, so you have our word that we will do all we can to help the community grow in the healthiest way possible. Naturally we bank at Alternatives, not only because they share our goals of community development, but they also provide the tools to make those goals a reality. Alternatives has been there for us from the beginning, helping us develop a business plan in the Business CENTS program, and continues to support us as we grow and have new financial needs.

Alternatives no longer participates in the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP).

However, if you do have your heart set on borrowing from Alternatives and you own a home, you may consider using a Home Equity Line of Credit to pay for college. Contact Brian at ext. 409 for details.
