When: Ongoing educational sessions to start Spring 2008
Where: Malphrus Construction Company, Inc.
http://www.malphrus.com/
Who: Construction crew employees
What: From Controller and SCACPA member Bruce Kenner, CPA:
I work for a construction company headquartered near Bluffton/Beaufort. We have about 1,000 employees and would love our employees to learn more about financial literacy. Another area you may want to consider when “searching for opportunities” is the public library. I know that my Beaufort County branch library periodically provides seminars of interest to patrons.
From Allison Caldwell after calling Bruce for more information:
They’ve never offered anything like this before, so it’s no immediate rush, but he'd like to explore setting up a program of a dozen or more generic topics to gauge interest, then schedule sessions preferably on a Saturday so that it’s a non-paid event. The company is willing to rent a local facility and provide refreshments. With further support he's willing to eventually present himself. Very nice guy – seems genuinely concerned and wants to do something positive to educate and benefit his employees long-term.
How: Confirm interest and availability with staff liaison Allison Caldwell at acaldwell@scacpa.org. I’ll put you in touch with Bruce for more details and provide additional resources as available.
Suggested topics: Good credit habits, reducing/eliminating debt, balancing a checkbook, preparing a home budget, saving for the future, etc.
