Poppy Bank

The Poppy Bank team was honored to partner with Junior Achievement of Sacramento to teach financial literacy to local elementary school students. The organization's JA in a Day program is a one-day event where volunteers from businesses and financial institutions teach students financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and work readiness through engaging, hands-on lessons.

Our team enjoyed connecting with the students and sharing important financial concepts such as differentiating between needs and wants and understanding how money moves throughout a community through everyday transactions. It was incredibly rewarding to invest in these young minds and empower them with the knowledge and tools to make informed financial decisions and plan for the future. We are already looking forward to next time.

Our San Ramon branch is now open! The Poppy Bank team gathered with the San Ramon Chamber of Commerce, local business owners, and community members to celebrate. This is Poppy Bank’s fourth branch to open in Contra Costa County, and we look forward to deepening our relationships in this community and supporting the San Ramon Chamber of Commerce’s mission to “enhance the quality of life and economic vitality in the San Ramon Valley.”

Next time you’re in San Ramon, stop by our branch, conveniently located at 116 Sunset Drive, Suite C-4. Branch manager Carlos Meraz and his team are ready to serve you.
