OneUnited Bank and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) recognize the importance of financial education, particularly for people with little or no banking experience. That's why OneUnited Bank supports the FDIC's Money Smart Program, a training program to help adults enhance their money skills and create positive banking relationships.

We agree with the FDIC that “Financial education fosters financial stability for individuals and for entire communities. The more people know about credit and banking services, the more likely they are to increase savings, buy homes, and improve their financial health and well being.” OneUnited Bank uses the FDIC Money Smart curriculum to help individuals build financial knowledge, develop financial confidence, and use banking services effectively.
