Ekopia seeks funds from members of our community of interest to be re-invested in worthwhile community ventures. Address: Ekopia Resource Exchange Ltd, The Park, Findhorn, Moray, IV36 3TZ, Phone number: 01309 691258 Web address: www.ekopia.findhorn.com
We use the word ‘investment’ quite literally here. The idea is to find projects with commercial prospects that will generate a suitable return for investors. Borrowers must have a social as well as economic purpose, and soundly based plans and projections. It is not the primary purpose of Ekopia to seek donations for worthy non-commercial ventures although we do welcome such support for the community. With the support of the Hygeia
Foundation, Ekopia launched a new community currency in May 2002 - the Eko.
