Banc of California Partners with Project Access to Renew Adopt-A-Center Commitment

 
ORANGE, Calif. - July 13, 2017 - PRLog -- Project Access today announced that Banc of California has renewed its Adopt-A-Center commitment for the Family Resource Center at Hermosa Village Apartments in Anaheim while also adopting Project Access' Family Resource Center at Triada Apartments in Santa Ana.

"We are thrilled to expand our partnership with Banc of California," said Kathy McCarrell, president and CEO of Project Access. "Our Family Resource Centers at Hermosa Village and Triada Apartments have particularly high needs, and Banc of California's partnership will help us bring critical services to low-income families."

"Banc Of California is proud to support Project Access Resource Centers in their mission of providing a pathway out of poverty," said Chris Garcia, associate vice president, Community Reinvestment Act project manager for Banc of California. "The opportunity to adopt their resource centers facilitates partnerships in our community that help build a stronger California."

The Adopt-A-Center program engages corporate partners in "adopting" a specific Family or Senior Resource Center within Project Access' portfolio of more than 60 centers. Banks and corporations that adopt a Project Access resource center make an annual contribution of $7,500 or $5,000 depending on the size of the community. Funds from the Adopt-A-Center program directly support on-site programs and services.

Project Access and Banc of California have partnered since 2015 to serve low-income families in Orange County through financial education workshops and volunteer projects. In 2016, Banc of California provided over 150 hours of volunteer service for Project Access. Banc of California also supports Project Access through board membership, with Associate Vice President, Community Reinvestment Act Project Manager, CRA Chris Garcia serving on Project Access' board of directors.
