Learn and practice the design process. No experience necessary! Develop new approaches to social issues with the experts. Design Jams are fast and fun, with food and prizes. They are not your typical group project. The Challenge: Take the best components of bank, credit union, payday lenders, lending circles, etc. to create a universally easy and affordable short-term loan product. The Partner: MassMutual Foundation. The MassMutual Foundation activates connections and untapped opportunities within communities so that all families can build their financial capability and thrive.

Hosted by: Michigan Center for Socially Engaged Design, Michigan Law Problem Solving Initiative, and Michigan School of Information
