DW was on the scene last week at the Oak Cliff Chase Bank branch to celebrate the success of On the Road Lending and the $1M investment for the CDFI, which now services five states. In continuing the celebration, JPMorganChase selected 3 stellar OTRL clients and paid off their last 3 months of car notes. The gratitude and appreciation from these clients were palpable and the entire room was overwhelmed with emotion. Check out the full story of this event and learn more about OTRL with the link below https://lnkd.in/gdpHxpfR #iamdw #blackpress #blackmedia #chasebank #jpmorgan #jpmorganchase #ontheroadlending #carloan #capital #financialliteracy

We're thrilled to announce a generous donation from JPMorganChase to support On the Road Lending’s economic mobility program! This funding will empower disadvantaged communities, helping individuals access reliable transportation and achieve financial stability. It will also strengthen our technology infrastructure, enabling us to provide even better support to those we serve. Thank you, JPMorgan Chase, for your commitment to driving positive change and helping us remove transportation barriers for those in need! https://lnkd.in/giDXRWGx?
Access to reliable and affordable transportation can change someone’s life, giving them greater opportunities for better paying jobs, access to education and medical care. That’s why last Thursday, JPMorganChase made a $1 million grant to Dallas-based nonprofit On the Road Lending. On the Road Lending offers low-interest car loans and financial coaching to empower clients with limited access to traditional financing. We didn’t stop there. At a community event at our Oak Cliff Community Branch in southern Dallas, we announced that Chase Auto paid off the remaining car loan balances for three On the Road Lending clients. Helping make it easier for folks in southern Dallas to have access to the tremendous opportunities across the city is what this partnership is all about. We also hosted a financial wellness panel that outlined tips for buying a car, managing credit and building overall financial wellbeing. Thanks to Michelle Corson and Terri Thomas for joining us for this meaningful event. This is just the beginning!
