OneUnited Bank, the largest Black-owned bank and the first and only Black-owned digital bank in America, is proud to announce Emmy award-winning actress and author Tiffany Haddish has joined the All-Star Presenters at the free OneTransaction Virtual Financial Conference, co-sponsored by Visa. The Conference is focused on closing the racial wealth gap and will be held on June 19, 2021, or Juneteenth, a holiday celebrating the emancipation of those who had been enslaved in the United States. Over 10,000 have already registered for the conference.
The #OneTransaction Campaign encourages Black families to claim One Transaction in 2021 –savings and investments, a profitable business, an improved credit score, homeownership, insurance, or a will – and provides action steps to get it done.
