ABOUT MARTIN'S WORK
Martin Eakes is a community organizer who has created an economic development strategy that combines business principles with a self-help strategy.

He creates bridges among traditional financial institutions, government, and nonprofit organizations in order to forge new systems that foster fiscal responsibility and economic opportunity.  Eakes’s organization, a community-based, nonprofit group called Self-Help, was started in 1980; and its credit union was capitalized in 1984 with a bake sale that raised $77 as its first equity.  Today, Self-Help is an eighty-million-dollar financial institution with offices in five cities.  The organization welcomes customers who have been underserved by most other banks; yet Self-Help’s loss ratio is lower than or comparable to that of commercial banks.  By demonstrating that such loans are successful, Eakes is leading the charge to change the face of banking in the United States, so that sustainable economic potential can be part of the lives of many more citizens.

BIOGRAPHY
Since 1980, Eakes has been the executive director of the Center for Community Self-Help, and since 1992, president of the Self-Help Credit Union.

Eakes received a B.A. (1976) from Davidson College, an M.P.A. (1980) from Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and a J.D. (1980) from Yale University’s Law School.

关于马丁的工作
马丁-埃克斯是一位社区组织者，他创造了一种经济发展战略，将商业原则与自助战略相结合。

他在传统的金融机构、政府和非营利组织之间架起桥梁，以建立新的系统，促进财政责任和经济机会。 埃克斯的组织是一个以社区为基础的非营利组织，名为 "自助"，成立于1980年；其信用社于1984年通过义卖筹集到77美元作为其第一笔股本而获得资本。 今天，Self-Help是一个价值八千万美元的金融机构，在五个城市设有办事处。 该组织欢迎那些被大多数其他银行服务不足的客户；但Self-Help的损失率却低于或与商业银行相当。 通过证明这种贷款是成功的，Eakes正在领导改变美国银行业的面貌，以便可持续的经济潜力能够成为更多公民生活的一部分。

个人简历
自1980年以来，Eakes一直是社区自助中心的执行董事，自1992年以来，担任自助信贷联盟的主席。

Eakes从戴维森学院获得学士学位（1976年），从普林斯顿大学伍德罗-威尔逊公共和国际事务学院获得公共管理硕士学位（1980年），从耶鲁大学法学院获得法学博士学位（1980年）。
