What is a cooperative society?

A cooperative society is an autonomous association of individuals who voluntarily come together to meet their mutual economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly owned and democratically controlled enterprise. Cooperative societies are based on the principles of self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity.

How is White Shadows different from other financial institutions?

White Shadows operates on cooperative principles, which means it is owned and controlled by its members. Unlike traditional banks and financial institutions that prioritize profits, our primary goal is to serve our members' needs. Profits generated by the cooperative are reinvested into the community or distributed among members as dividends.

Who can become a member of White Shadows?

Membership is open to all individuals who share our cooperative values and are willing to contribute to our collective goals. This includes local residents, small business owners, entrepreneurs, professionals, and students.

What are the financial benefits of joining White Shadows?

Members have access to a range of financial services, including savings accounts with competitive interest rates, low-interest loans, and profitable investment opportunities. Additionally, members participate in profit-sharing based on the number of shares they own.

How does the loan process work?

Members can apply for loans by submitting a loan application form along with necessary documentation. The cooperative’s loan committee reviews applications based on criteria such as creditworthiness, purpose of the loan, and repayment ability. Approved loans are offered at competitive interest rates with flexible repayment terms.

What kinds of community projects does White Shadows support?

We support a variety of community projects aimed at local development and sustainability. These include infrastructure development (roads, schools, healthcare facilities), environmental initiatives (tree planting, recycling programs), and social welfare programs (scholarships, health camps).

How can I get involved in cooperative activities?

Members can get involved by attending regular meetings, volunteering for committees, participating in community projects, and joining social events. Active participation strengthens the cooperative and enhances the member experience.

What educational programs are available to members?

We offer a wide range of educational programs, including workshops on financial literacy, business management, technical skills, and personal development. These programs are designed to help members grow professionally and personally.

What are the member shares and how do they work?

Member shares represent ownership in the cooperative. When you join, you are required to purchase a minimum number of shares. These shares entitle you to voting rights in the General Assembly and a portion of the cooperative’s profits. The value of shares can appreciate over time, providing a good return on investment.

How does profit-sharing work?

At the end of each financial year, profits generated by the cooperative are distributed among members based on the number of shares they own. This ensures that members benefit directly from the cooperative’s success.
