Financial Education Classes

Please join us in one of our upcoming Financial Education Classes being held throughout the year.  In these difficult economic times we understand the importance of understanding money management, finding ways to decrease expenses, finding ways to increase income and building a savings plan is crucial for financial survival.

All of our classes are free of charge. Raffles and snacks are provided at each class.  Pre-registration is required, please call Greg Ezell, Outreach Coordinator to register.

"29 percent of Massachusetts households do not have savings accounts."
