Jump$tart Your Money Week Luncheon

Hello OKMM friends. Join us as we celebrate the 10th annual Jump$tart Your Money Week (April 20-26) by attending the kick-off luncheon on Monday, April 21. Jump$tart Your Money Week is a statewide, coordinated effort of the Oklahoma Jump$tart Coalition and its members to raise awareness of financial education issues in Oklahoma.

Topic: Quick Cash Now: The Impact of Payday Loans on our Communities

When: Monday, April 21 (11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.)

Where: Federal Reserve Bank, Oklahoma City Branch
              226 Dean A. McGee Avenue, Suite 300, Oklahoma City, 73102

Guest Speaker: The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Oklahoma City Branch welcomes Ona Lara Porter, President and CEO of Prosperity Works. Ms. Porter is known for her powerful, no nonsense approach to problem solving and policy development. She believes that working for what we do want instead of against what we don't want allows individuals to invest in high impact goals that literally change their lives.

Join Ms. Porter as she discusses the payday loan industry and the work she's been doing in New Mexico to promote financial education and asset-building, while addressing predatory lending practices.

The luncheon is free but registration is required. Please register using this link by Wednesday, Apr. 16.
