Bolingbrook Park District is excited to be offering a new slate of programs in partnership with Bolingbrook Bank & Trust (198 S. Bolingbrook Dr.). These programs will be taught by a professional banker and have been developed with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
“This is a great program for anyone wanting to learn the basics of a checking account, rebuilding credit, home buying information, and more,” said Diana Sorescu, Branch Manager of Bolingbrook Bank & Trust.
One-day programs will be offered starting in September for both kids ages 10-14 and adults 15 years and older. The kid’s programs will serve as a guide for future responsibility and will cover things like understanding the difference of a want vs. a need. For adults, it’s never too late to learn about finances. These programs will understand and achieve goals and how to keep up with them, especially in this rapidly changing environment.
“I love helping my community,” said Sorescu. “I am here to hopefully people reach a goal. This is why I do this and enjoy every moment.”
Each class is just $5 for residents.
