Hands4Hope Sponsor Spotlight :: Wells Fargo


Wells Fargo has been a Platinum Sponsor of Hands4Hope since 2008.  Recently, we interviewed Jamie N. McCullough, Wells Fargo Vice President and Regional Banking District Manager of the Golden Summit District as well as a Hands4Hope Board Member, about Wells Fargo.

About Wells Fargo
Wells Fargo has been helping customers succeed financially since 1852. Their first office opened in San Francisco on July 13, 1852, and their second office opened within days in Sacramento and their third office was opened in Placerville California. Why? Sacramento was the gold-buying center of California. In 2015 Wells Fargo invested more than $2.6 million in schools and non-profit agencies in the Greater Sacramento Area. Wells Fargo has long history of serving and giving back to the El Dorado County Community.

What has been your involvement with Hands4hope?
My family moved to El Dorado Hills in July of 2013 and I began to learn about the great programs Hands4Hope had in place for kids to develop their leadership skills at a young age. I really was intrigued with the mission of this non-profit and joined the board of directors in June of 2015. I’m looking forward to getting to know the staff and having my family become actively involved in the program.

What is the reason(s) for sponsoring Hands4Hope?
The vision and values of Wells Fargo supports creating leadership with our youth and including financial literacy in the process. We believe in investing in our community and understand the youth is our future.  

What has been your/their experience with our organization?
Wells Fargo has been a part of Hand 4 Hope since it began in 2008. We have a had multiple team members serve on the board and provide financial and volunteer help to support the mission of Hand4Hope.

I look forward to working, learning, growing with Hands4Hope and continue making a positive impact on the youth and community we serve in El Dorado County and Sacramento County.
