At RMPP, we believe that financial security and wealth building are crucial for all Colorado individuals and families. However, we acknowledge that systemic barriers and discrimination have historically made it more challenging for Black, Brown, and youth communities to attain economic empowerment. That's why our primary focus is on working with these communities to promote financial stability, while also serving as a resource for anyone who wants to improve their financial situation. Our inclusive approach involves providing education, advocacy, and innovative strategies that create opportunities for individuals to build generational wealth and achieve economic security. We offer support in crucial areas, including credit building, budgeting, upskilling to enhance earning potential, home ownership, business credit, and asset protection. We are committed to addressing the root causes of economic inequality in Colorado. Through our efforts, we envision a future where everyone in the state has access to the resources and support necessary to achieve financial prosperity and success, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status.
Empower disproportionately impacted communities to attain knowledge and resources to gain wealth.
At RMPP, our commitment to the community is exemplified through stories like that of a father who, trusting in the power of education, he supported his daughter's journey through college by providing his tax returns to her. Unbeknownst to him, his trust was exploited when his daughter fraudulently signed Parent PLUS loans in his name for four years. The father, unaware of the financial burden he unknowingly shouldered, never checked his credit or noticed. This story underscores a common challenge faced by many in our community, especially immigrants unfamiliar with the nuances of financial systems. RMPP steps into such situations, leveraging our expertise to assist individuals like this father in rectifying financial injustices. The unauthorized loans not only impacted his financial stability but also made it challenging for him to purchase a home.
Success for RMPP is measured not only in numbers but in the tangible impact on individuals and families. One of our proudest moments was achieving a favorable resolution for the father mentioned above. Witnessing the relief on his face and knowing that we had made a significant difference in his life underscored the importance of our work. This father has now committed himself to check his credit annually. Another impactful success story involves our community-led financial education workshops. Empowering individuals to make informed financial decisions has resulted in increased credit scores, improved budgeting, and a sense of financial security. Our proudest moments are rooted in the impact we make in the lives of those we serve.
