Chase Bank Sponsors Back-to-School Event in Birmingham

The city of Birmingham, Alabama, was buzzing with excitement this weekend as Chase Bank sponsored a Back-to-School event at the A.G. Gaston Boys & Girls Club on Saturday, August 10. The event, held annually, is not just about handing out free school supplies but also about promoting the importance of financial health to students and families.

Teaching About Financial Health

In alignment with their mission to foster financial health in communities, Chase Bank curated a workshop for attendees. This module aimed to educate parents and students about effective budgeting and smart spending as the back-to-school season approaches.

Moreover, the financial institution encouraged conversations about solid money habits, such as establishing good credit and practising personal and business financial health routines. Students looking to delve deeper into money management can access more information on chase.com/student.

Community Outreach

Seizing the opportunity to give back to the community, Chase Bank distributed 1,000 free backpacks packed with school supplies across the Alabama market. Over 600 of these were given out at the Birmingham event alone.

Chase Bank employees, together with volunteers, worked tirelessly to ensure that each child in attendance left with a backpack. They included essentials such as notebooks, pens, pencils, and much more, aiming to prepare students for the upcoming school year adequately.

Creating an Atmosphere of Fun and Learning

In addition to the financial health workshops and school supplies giveaway, the event’s attendees enjoyed various yard games, snacks, and even free haircuts. The day was designed to be more than just educational, ensuring students and their families had a fun-filled day.

Looking Forward

Year after year, Chase Bank’s Back-to-School event in Birmingham has continued to gro, both in scale and impact. The unique blend of education, community outreach, and fun creates an environment where families can learn, engage in community-building activities, and walk away with tangible resources for the upcoming school year.

Chase Bank’s commitment to community development initiatives, such as this Back-to-School event, highlights their dedication to nurturing an economically aware younger generation, in addition to offering financial services.
