Financial Empowerment Center Exploration Grant
Gaithersburg is one of six municipalities to receive grant funding through the Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund to explore the feasibility of establishing a Financial Empowerment Center (FEC). Currently operating in 26 other locations across the country, FECs provide free, professional one-on-one counseling to help residents manage their finances, pay down debt, increase savings, and establish/build credit, and access mainstream banking products. Such a Center could build upon Gaithersburg's offerings through Bank On Gaithersburg and the Gaithersburg Financial Wellness Coalition.
This is a City of Gaithersburg, Maryland announcement.
