For Saturday sessions, all City volunteers meet downtown at the Harris Bank building, 111 W. Monroe St., at 7:30 a.m.

At Harris Bank we will greet you, assign you to a site, and put you on a bus departing before 8:00 a.m.

Some sites will have various Financial Literacy partners that may include:

• Financial Aid Experts, who handle any complications or questions a volunteer may have with the FAFSA completion process; and
• Banking representatives, who can educate clients about basic banking services and help with opening a checking or savings account

On a typical Saturday, we’ll finish between up between 12:30 and 1:00 p.m., board the buses and have you back downtown at Harris Bank before 2:00 p.m.

For Saturday suburban sessions in Aurora, Calumet City, Plainfield, and Villa Park all volunteers go directly to their site, arriving by 8:00 a.m. For Waukegan and Maywood, please arrive by 8:45am.  The activities and duties at these sites are the same as above except that we do not provide transportation.
