Let’s build something together
Building a stronger community in Tucson begins with breaking down barriers that prevent economic mobility for people, especially those in communities of color. Workforce development and building job skills is a foundational need, and Bank of America is taking action to make a difference here. We’re working with our local college and university partners along with other organizations to help reskill and retrain for today’s in-demand jobs and careers. Along with our retail bank presence, our digital banking services are providing the convenience and easy-access needs of our customers and business clients. Through the challenging times we face, we remain committed to building our community.
Preparing students for the new workforce
When fewer than 16% of its majority-minority enrollment was able to complete a degree or certificate within six years, Tucson’s Pima Community College launched PimaFastTrack. This jobs initiative focuses on students of color —a population disproportionately affected by the pandemic-led economic downturn. Aimed at giving students access to careers that pay a family-sustaining wage, PimaFastTrack partners with local employers to identify in-demand jobs. The initiative arranges training and apprenticeships in fields including advanced industrial technology, automotive technology, building and construction technology, cyber security/IT and certification as an emergency medical technician.
Improving healthcare services in Tucson’s most underserved communities
More than fifty years after its founding, El Rio Health, Tucson’s first community health clinic, needed to adapt, and fast, to continue to serve Tucson residents and a greater scale amidst the coronavirus. To help El Rio with new technology and other resources it needs to adapt and continue its community services, we provided the organization with a $50,000 grant, part of our $100 million commitment to support local communities in need.
