WHY BECOME A EMPLOYER PARTNER
 Our goal is to bring awareness to the unbanked and underbanked households in DC while guiding them into the financial mainstream and helping them to open up starter accounts.  To accomplish this goal, we turned to financial institutions in the City to demonstrate leadership and to help remove the barriers that low-income families face in opening a bank account. To date, we have partnered with over 12 banks and credit unions across DC.By partnering with us, financial institutions can expand marketing in targeted, low-income neighborhoods and increase the visibility of appropriate products in DC. By working with nonprofits in DC, Financial Partners have been able to identify customers and develop new strategies to reach unbanked customers. Staff offering financial training courses have made real connections in the community.

As a Financial Partner, you can:

  • Help bank the unbanked by offering the Bank on DC product at your DC locations.
  • Participate in Bank on DC outreach events.
  • Partner with a community organization of your choice.
  • Hold a financial training seminar for community organizations.
  • Include Bank on DC information in your mailings and newsletters.
  • Display posters and other materials in public spaces.
