DFI's Spanish Financial Education & Outreach Update

Wednesday, October 30, 2024

DFI’s outreach team is doing big things for financial education in Spanish! Here’s what we’ve have been up to so far this year: 

Summer: LETI’s Latino Expo 2024.  

  • DFI had a booth full of resources! The Expo had a group of community organizations, state agencies, and food trucks to celebrate Latinx culture. 

Spring: Centro Cultural Mexicano. 

  • Outreach Coordinator Nathan Spiecker gave a four-part workshop on financial education with Centro Cultural Mexicano in Redmond. Once the four workshops were over, Centro Cultural Mexicano started a financial education series of their own. 

We work with nonprofits, schools, and organizations wanting to help Spanish-speaking communities. Through partnering with nonprofit organizations, we hope to continue to build strong community-based materials to promote financial education and well-being with Spanish-speaking groups in Washington State. 

If you are interested in having a presentation at your school, organization, or group, you can request a presentation with DFI. We can travel to you wherever you are in Washington State!
