PNC Foundation awards $15,000 grant to Mobile Works
Mobile, Ala., --The PNC Foundation recently awarded a $15,000 grant for workforce development programming to Mobile Works. Through this partnership, Mobile Works will provide financial literacy information and monthly training classes to Mobile residents beginning early April 2.
"Our goal is to increase awareness of basic financial literacy for job seekers and encourage a proactive approach," states Sydney Raine, Mobile Works president. "In today's job market, some employers require credit checks in addition to background checks as a condition of employment. These classes will provide basic tools to help address any additional barriers for employment." More than 60 people per month are expected to attend financial literacy classes on topics such as basic banking, budgeting, avoiding identity theft, and key elements of money management.
"PNC's support is helping individuals in the Mobile area achieve the financial skills and resources needed to compete in today's job market," said Cedric Hatcher, PNC regional president, Gulf Coast. "This grant is just one of many ways we continue to invest in the financial stability of our residents and the communities we serve."
In addition to financial literacy classes, current job readiness classes will be offered in resume writing, interviewing, dressing for a job interview and job search tips. To learn more, please visit www.mobile-works.org.
