Latino access to banks promoted – New Orleans
Tagged: activist, Banking, Louisiana, New Orleans, populationPosted on: July 25th, 2007“Concerned about a perceived lack of financial literacy among New Orleans growing Hispanic population, a group of activists has joined forces to educate that community about money management.
Led by Louisiana Appleseed, a nonprofit comprised of volunteer lawyers, a new Financial Access Program aims to study how Louisiana banking institutions are reaching out to Hispanics, low-income earners and other groups considered underserved by the financial sector. The program also plans to offer free financial classes, many of which will be taught in Spanish.”
