In June of 2020, Netflix announced a $10 million deposit in Hope Credit Union to build economic opportunity in the Black communities that Hope serves. The deposit marked the launch of Hope's Transformational Deposit program, which aims to import $100 million in deposits, allowing both individuals and businesses outside the region to indirectly support a historically underserved population.
Today we're joined by Kathy Saloy, Senior Vice President of Community & Economic Development of Hope Credit Union, and Rashida Ferdinand, Founder and Executive Director of the Sankofa Community Development Corporation (CDC), to learn more about how they are working to transforming communities by focusing on small businesses, listening to their neighbors, and forging innovative partnerships.
