Creating Financial Stability Through Work

OUR STORY

 

 

Historically South Memphis has been plagued by generational poverty and high unemployment.

Advance Memphis works with the community to support economic revitalization through Biblically-based programs that bring HOPE, KNOWLEDGE, RESOURCES, and SKILLS.

Advance Memphis on PBS

The impact of being ‘unbanked’ is significant, not only for individuals, but for communities as a whole. Two of our amazing Work Life and Faith & Finances graduates sat down with PBS NewsHour to share how their lives have changed since being ‘banked’.

Volunteer

Programs don’t change lives. God changes lives through relationships. Our staff alone can’t develop relationships with every participant and graduate – we need your help.
