OneUnited Bank President Teri Williams to Appeared on WCVB-TV’s CityLine Sunday, February 20, 2011 to discuss “I Got Bank”
Teri Williams, OneUnited Bank President and author of I Got Bank! wrote the book after she discovered that there weren’t any books geared toward educating urban youth about finances. “I was inspired to write I Got Bank! because helping young people acquire financial literacy skills is a personal passion and mission for me and OneUnited Bank,” said Williams. “I could not find a book about personal finance from the perspective of urban youth. Yet, when children learn the lessons of financial literacy at a young age, they form strong habits that can be life-changing.” Ms. Williams has held numerous financial workshops for youth at schools and community organizations.
