Yellow Springs is a unique, tight-knit community known for its progressive spirit and commitment to equity. We were first introduced to Yellow Springs through our partnership with the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for Guaranteed Income Research (CGIR), which has a strong history of working with the community.

After a successful pilot program, we’ve continued our work here because of the strong local relationships, deep sense of trust, and shared belief in giving young people a real shot at financial freedom.
