The RAMWP team hosted a Financial Wellness Workshop at Pondview Apartments on 4/28, creating a supportive space for residents to build confidence and reduce stress around money. The session focused on financial mindfulness, healthier money habits, and practical tools to increase awareness and acceptance in everyday financial decision-making.

Residents actively engaged in hands-on activities designed to shift mindset and ease financial anxiety. They painted rocks as a symbolic way to release negative thoughts and worries about money, and created affirmation jars filled with uplifting reminders to reinforce calm, confidence, and self-assurance in their financial lives.

The workshop reflected RAMWP’s commitment to meeting people where they are and providing accessible, compassionate tools that support long-term financial and emotional wellbeing.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the first Small Business Activation Series event focused on access to capital and building strong financial foundations for small businesses. It was incredible to see so many entrepreneurs, business owners, and community members come together to learn, connect, and invest in the future of their businesses.

A special thank you to our panelists Jimmy Pauris an Advisor to Business Owners and Investors Navigating IRS Issues, Eddy Desir from Cambridge Savings Bank, Chris Hunter from Local Enterprise Assistance Fund, and Jeanette Velasquez from Velasquez Tax & Business Services for sharing their expertise, experiences, and valuable insights with our community. Your guidance helped create a meaningful and informative conversation for small business owners looking to better access and manage capital.
