As we celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, we recognize the incredible impact of community partnerships in empowering our families!    As Charlotte Bilingual Preschool says, “Partnering with VITA Latino has been invaluable, as their mission of financial education and empowerment aligns with [our] goal of supporting families’ long-term success. Their personalized counseling and workshops provide critical resources for building financial stability for our immigrant families. Most significantly, VITA Latino’s free, in-language tax preparation services at our location have helped families confidently navigate the tax process, removing barriers and fostering trust while ensuring they receive the full financial benefits available to them.”    At Common Wealth Charlotte, we are proud to collaborate with organizations that help further support our Spanish-speaking initiative Buenas Finanzas Carolinas and its program VITA Latino. Together, we strive to provide essential financial education and resources that uplift underserved communities, helping families build a brighter and more secure future.     #HispanicHeritageMonth #cwclt #CommonWealthCharlotte #Charlotte #FinancialLiteracy #FinancialCapability #FinancialFreedom
