In the run-up to the opening of the school year at Tulsa Public Schools, Chase Bank sponsored back-to-school backpack giveaways at various locations in Tulsa. Employees gave away a total of 400 backpacks and school supplies to students.
The bank branch at 6140 S. Lewis Ave. joined other branches in the city and across the country to support 60,000 students and families with school supplies and financial health workshops.
“Chase wants to make sure Tulsa kids have what they need to return to the classroom,” said Ashley Townsend, vice president, community manager at Chase in Tulsa.
In addition to the backpack giveaway, the bank hosted a financial health workshop for those attending the event.
“At Chase, we understand back-to-school is an important financial moment for students and families. This is a great opportunity to talk about money habits for all, including credit and good personal and business financial health habits,” said Townsend.
