TPA needs short term volunteers to help launch its Savings Initiative Project. The Savings Initiative
Project is a savings intervention for families receiving low-income benefits through the TANF program here in Washington.
Over a yearlong development process, TPA created Money Powerup Packs, an event ready kit for frontline staff to easily implement financial curriculum into their current programs. TPA needs 3-4 volunteers to help assemble packs to be sent out to partner sites. Volunteer participation in this opportunity is critical to the success of this pilot program.
In early testing, partner’s have reported that Money Powerup Packs help their families start meaningful
conversations about financial topics, provide frontline staff with the resources and confidence to help
families engage in their finances and make saving for the future more tangible for their parents.
Volunteers will meet in TPA’s Innovation Lab in Pioneer Square. Duties include: cutting, laminating and
assembling event kits.
