Urban Financial Services Coalition invites you to a special session featuring Sekou Kaalund, JP Morgan Chase Managing Director and Head of Advancing Black Pathways, Wednesday, June 17, 2020, 6:30 pm, est.  Mr. Kaalund will give an overview of the Advancing Black Pathways Program and how it is expanding economic opportunity for black people.

Making the economy work for more people is a key focus for JPMorgan Chase.  As part of that mission JPMorgan Chase launched Advancing Black Pathways—an initiative that builds on their existing efforts to help the black community chart stronger paths towards economic success and empowerment. JPMorgan Chase believes it is uniquely positioned to marshal their resources to help address some of the persistent challenges facing the black community. Everyone deserves the opportunity to participate in economic growth.  That’s JP Morgan Chase is providing more support for the black community in their pursuit of educational, career, business and personal financial success.  Advancing Black Pathways combines JPMorgan Chase’s business and philanthropic resources to focus on three pathways to accelerate economic empowerment and opportunity for the black community.
