As part of the second annual Bank Empowerment Tour, Atlanta’s Hittmenn DJ’s will be opening 5,000 bank accounts for urban youth in the Atlanta area.
“My goal along with Hittmenn DJ’s this year is a great project for all our communities,” said Hittmenn DJ’s president Rob “Kaspa” Smith. “We would like to open over 5,000 bank accounts for disadvantaged children. We will open these accounts, AND we will teach youth the importance of economics, banking, and finance. Presenting children with this opportunity gives them the tools to reprogram the mind-set that exists in our urban communities as it pertains to finances.”
The Bank Empowerment Tour is expected continue through the school year and sponsors for the event have included Decatur First Bank, Foot Lockers/Champ, V103’s Greg Street, and more.
“Our first event of the tour was such a success that we wanted to continue it…We are encouraging everyone to help us with this tour in any way that you can,” explained Smith.
The Hittmenn DJ’s is an Atlanta based company that provides DJ services that include radio consultation, mixtapes, marketing, and more.
