In partnership with 7 17 Credit Union and Warren City’s 3rd and 4th Ward councilmen, we are excited to offer residents home improvement funds with little or no costs — the more you have to use, the more the city of Warren can match with “Free” funds. Don’t have the funds for your project? Get up to $15,000* as a loan from us and the city will match the loan amount — borrow $5,000 the city matches $5,000, borrow $10,000, the city matches $10,000, all the way to $15,000!
