Fresh Start Banking
While we work toward opening a new credit union dedicated to justice-involved individuals and their families, our Fresh Start Banking program connects community members to affordable banking services. Through our partnership with an established federal credit union, we ensure access to fair, inclusive financial services.
Returning citizens can easily open a mobile banking account using an iPhone or Android device. Dora Everyday Checking features no-minimum checking, no-fees, no-credit check, debit card, direct deposit, 2-day early payday, thousands of surcharge-free ATMS across the country, and credit building products.
You can download the free Bank Dora app in English or Spanish and open an account in minutes. Say goodbye to expensive check cashing services!
