July Sponsor - Partnership to End Poverty
We are on a mission to bring the region together to help our low-income neighbors become financially stable. This is both a moral mission and an economic mission. We believe that every Central Oregonian should have a fair chance to live free of poverty. We also believe that the more people in our region who contribute to the economic health of our region, the more likely our region is to succeed and prosper. (http://www.partnershiptoendpoverty.org/) One of our initiatives, Bank on Central Oregon, helps the unbanked gain access to mainstream financial services. An unbanked person, of which there are over 30,000 in Central Oregon, can spend $800 a year just on check cashing services. That doesn’t include money orders or cashier’s checks used to pay bills. Over a lifetime, that can add up to $40,000. A simple checking or savings account can help keep that money in the pocket of the wage earner, not the predatory lender. The accounts vary slightly by institution, but all are free or low-cost and all have a minimal opening deposit. Learn more at: http://www.bankonco.org/
The HRACO Mentoring Program
Although human resource professionals have informally been mentors to others in the field for decades, formal SHRM mentoring programs across the country have had great success. We believe our members in Central Oregon can also benefit from such a program.
The Mentoring Program is still accepting applications for HR Professionals who would like to be mentored.
