JPMorganChase Expands Small Business Mentoring Initiative
JPMorganChase has announced plans to hire 100 more small business bankers in California, with a focus on mentoring businesses and creating opportunities for families and communities. The bank's Coaching for Impact program aims to connect business owners with their own mentors, with the goal of graduating 3,700 small businesses in Southern California within the next five years.
One business owner who has benefited from the program is featured in a recent KTLA report. She credits her success to her connection with her coach and says that the program has 'supercharged' her business.
JPMorganChase's commitment to small businesses is part of its broader efforts as the official bank of Team USA and a founding partner of the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic games. The bank's focus on community development and economic growth is reflected in its initiatives such as Coaching for Impact and its work with the LA28 games.
