A credit report can affect many financial decisions a person makes. Credit scores can influence car loans, mortgage rates, and job offers. Join us at 6:30 pm on Wednesday, April 10, 2019 when Nelson J. Acevedo, representing the Urban Affairs Coalition, presents Building and Maintaining Good Credit at the Margaret R. Grundy Memorial Library, 680 Radcliffe Street. During this event, participants are introduced to credit reports including where to find them, how to decipher them, and how your credit determines eligibility for loans. This class will also focus on repairing credit report histories through sound financial practices. Seating is limited for this free event. Register by calling 215.788.7891, or online at www.grundylibrary.org.
