Bank On NELA

What is Bank On NELA?

Bank On Northeast Louisiana is a coalition of local partnerships between financial institutions, community organizations and city/state/federal government agencies that work to improve the financial stability of the unbanked and underbanked residents of our communities.

The objective of Bank On NELA is to improve financial stability by connecting residents to safe and affordable mainstream accounts in banks and credit unions, raising public awareness of these efforts and opportunities, and expanding access to financial education and other financial empowerment opportunities.

Thanks to the Wells Fargo Foundation and CFE Fund for generously supporting full-time dedicated leadership to supercharge the Bank On movement. Bank On Northeast Louisiana is excited to announce our full-time Bank On Fellow, Raya Boyte-Starnes, to advance local Bank On operations and to help build the financial stability of residents in Northeast Louisiana.
