RIVIERA BEACH, FLORIDA – City of Riviera Beach, Riviera Beach CRA, and Truist Bank Partnered Together for Virtual Financial Literacy Classes

The City of Riviera Beach, Riviera Beach Community Redevelopment Agency, and Truist Bank partnered together to create two virtual financial literacy class offerings to Riviera Beach residents. These classes were offered through Zoom at 11am and 6pm on each of the two weeks.

The class topics were “Setting Yourself Up for The Future” and “Understanding Credit and Debt.” Residents were able to learn more about bank account management, savings, retirement, credit, and debt. They were able to ask questions and get additional resources after the class, if needed.

Personal finance and budgeting are intimidating and is not always something people want to look at. We need to connect with our community, so they can learn to invest in themselves. The more we educate ourselves on finance the more likely our community will thrive. Our partnership with Truist Bank demonstrates our aligned interest in equipping our residents with the financial tools needed to create wealth for generations to come.
