Urban Upbound is seeking Financial Empowerment Ambassadors to spread the word about our programs in the Bronx. Financial Empowerment Ambassadors are energetic, outgoing, and passionate about personal financial management and will share that enthusiasm with others!
Ambassadors will engage Bronx public housing residents on financial empowerment and money management. They will spread awareness of the Residents Creating Assets and Networking (Residents CAN!) program by flyering public housing developments and speaking with residents one-on-one about the importance of budgeting, saving, improving credit, and reducing debt. Ambassadors will also represent Urban Upbound's mission to alleviate poverty for public housing neighborhoods and instruct residents on how to access free financial coaching services.
