The Financial Literacy Highway campaign is an opportunity to link financial counseling to the community at- large. It is an opportunity for the community to pause and look at their financial situations through several lenses. Knowledge has always been the key to change and empowerment and financial literacy is the road to a healthy credit score which can change lives. Achieving a score of 700 or better can open doors to housing, jobs, and other opportunities for a better life for all.
On July 20, 2024, financial institutions, businesses, and nonprofits will come together to share important financial wellness tips and local resources. Collectively, we are hosting this community resource fair with financial activities, learning sessions, information booths, kid and youth activities and more. Second Harvest Food Bank will also join to distribute food to families on a first-come basis.
