Do Something Good

One of the things I’ve learned over the last few years is how hard it can really be to get good financial advice if you don’t have a lot of money. It can be even harder if you don’t know where to look. Luckily, over the last few years, people have been making it easier to access good information.

Now, one woman is making sure that instead of having to go look for information, good financial advice is being brought to the working, but poor millennials. Sheena Allen, an already well armed entrepreneur, has created CapWay. CapWay provides financial access and opportunity to unbanked, underbanked, and working, poor millennials. Not only does this company provide their audience with credit cards, but it also combines that with financial education and opportunities to help them reach financial health.

Learn more about Allen and how she started this company in this great article from Forbes!
