Financially CLEAN and Good Shepherd Services Announce Partnership for 2021-2022 School Year
In its inaugural award season, Black Podcasting Awards recognized Two Black Guy With Good Credit podcast with nominations in two categories.
Following the Financially CLEAN Small Business Incubator last fall, Ephrem Kitoyi was one of our attendees who was able to bring his idea to fruition. A few weeks ago, we caught up with him to hear his story and the progress he has made thus far.
Alumnus Shaun Lynda, co-host of the Two Black Guys with Good Credit podcast, returned to Ottawa University campus with Financially CLEAN program director Dionne Nicholls to make three short “Money 101” videos for new grads.
Assemblyman Walter Mosley hosted over 1000 teens at his 5th Annual Career Fair at the Shirley A. Chisolm State Office Building in Fort Greene, Brooklyn on Friday. That’s a lot of downloads!!! We officially launched The College Financial Playbook, a Free E-book there, which was beyond awesome.
YES!
They are Living Financially CLEAN and have the arm bands to prove it!
Every child that downloaded our free e-book on Friday received a Financially CLEAN arm band to remind them to pay their bills on time.
Assemblyman Walter Mosley took the time to visit with us and see how the magic happens and how we are trying to share financial literacy one e-book and child at a time. And we had to take one State Office Selfie!!
On Tuesday June 13th, Chipotle Mexican Grille in Brooklyn on Myrtle Ave is partnering with Financially CLEAN to make early financial education accessible to under resourced high school students. 50% of proceeds from sales today will go to fund programming --giving Taco Tuesday a whole new meaning. See complete details below.
“Financially CLEAN has graduated close to 800 students in less than 2 years and with the help of organizations like Chipotle and the support of the community we hope to double that number next year.”
Dionne Nicholls, Program Director for CLEAN sharing financial life lessons with the students of PATH High School.
We're on a mission to see every child before the age of 18 taught financial literacy in the classroom before the apply for their first credit card.
