Assistance For Single Parents to host seminar

Assistance For Single Parents (AFSP) is hosting a “Show Me the Money” seminar on Sept. 17 thanks in part to a $10,000 grant received from Entergy Waterford 3.

A variety of guest speakers will teach single parents how to improve their credit score, make extra money, take advantage of tax credits.  There will be discussions on budgeting, financial risk management, and much more!  All participants will receive a $25 savings deposit certificate from the Louisiana Federal Credit Union to help jump-start their savings.

“We are so thankful to have the support and backing of amazing companies like Entergy Waterford 3, Archer Daniels Midland, Wingzzz-N-Thingzzz, the Louisiana Federal Credit Union, St. Charles United Methodist Church, and the St. Charles Women’s Club.  Without this financial backing AFSP could not offer this seminar; or other programs like the School Uniform Giveaway, Reboot Your Power – Employment Seminar,  Free Legal Workshops, or our single parent support meetings,” stated Debra Rieder, executive director.

Assistance For Single Parents (AFSP), a local 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, is dedicated to assisting employed single parents and their children with empowerment, supportive services and resource referrals…primarily those families caught in the “governmental gap” of working poor and underemployed.

The “Show Me the Money” seminar will take place this Saturday, Sept 17th starting at 9:30AM in the fellowship hall of the St. Charles United Methodist Church, 1905 Ormond Blvd in Destrehan.   To register, please visit www.AssistanceForSingleParent.org.
