We’re here to help…

Founded in 1970 to address the growing drug epidemic affecting the community and its youth, New Morning is now the longest serving nonprofit in El Dorado County.

For more than 40 years, New Morning has expanded its work to partner with  schools, law enforcement, public agencies, and other nonprofit organizations to build a safety net for nearly 1,500 troubled children in our community each year. New Morning provides the County’s only shelter for runaway, homeless or abandoned youth. We also provide more counseling services to school aged children than any other provider in the County.

New Morning, in cooperation with United Way Capital Region, is proud to sponsor three (3) financial education classes to adults, ages 18 and older, without a current account with a banking institution:

  • Thursday,  January 19th : 10: 00 AM – 12:00 PM,  B-2 
  • Thursday, February 2nd : 1:00 – 3:00 PM,  B-2
  • Wednesday, March 21st : 5:00 – 7:00 PM, B-2

 The program, Bank On, is a joint effort of the Office of the Governor, Office of the Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), local Financial Institutions and Nonprofit Organizations.  This multi-pronged program is to ensure allCalifornia residents have access to mainstream financial resources.  Free financial education classes and low cost or free banking accounts are provided to qualified participants.  All classes are tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients/organization. 

Classes will include education on:

  1. Overview of Banks and Credit Unions
  2. Understanding Checking
  3. Understanding Savings
  4. Money Management and Budgeting

Conservative estimates demonstrate:

  1. One in five Californians don’t have a checking account;
  2. Nearly 50% don’t have savings accounts;
  3. The average “unbanked” worker spends over $800 per year to cash checks, resulting in $40,000 over a lifetime to cash checks and pay bills;
  4. Those without accounts are more likely to be the victim of crime.
