Laltsha Cunningham of Gesher Human Services Shares Holiday Financial Tips
Oakland County, MI- With a birthday close to Christmas, Laltsha Cunningham knows how easy it can be to over-spend. But after overcoming her own youthful debt, she’s now helping others take control of their finances and plan for the future. Cunningham has worked in finance and lending for 27 years, and now is the Financial Education Manager for Gesher Human Services, a nonprofit that offers career development, behavioral health, and residential services to “strengthen our community by strengthening the individual.”
Last week Cunningham held an online class through Gesher to share financial tips for the holidays.
“I’m passionate about making sure families learn this, not just for the holidays, but for life,” she said.
Cunningham shared that at one point she realized, “the more debt I went to in this season, the more I had to pay off the next year.”
