A huge thank you to Pendleton Community Bank for sponsoring our four financial workshops during the 2024-2025 school year! We’d also like to give a special shout-out to our workshop speaker, Jeff Hulett, for educating our students on how to manage and feel confident with their finances. We had an amazing turnout, with 400 students attending the programs!
 
Our gratitude extends to the Reddix Center for First-Generation Students, Off-Campus Living, and Jeff for their support in organizing these events.
 
Once again, thank you to everyone who helped make this series a reality, and to our students who participated!
