Food Truck to Financial Training in Pine Bluff, AR

Kitchen on Wheels is no ordinary food truck. Aaron and Berinda Eugene serve everyone from corporate workers to college students with their restaurant on wheels. The truck is also a training ground for youth with whom the couple works in their ministry. HOPE partners with them on both endeavors. The Eugenes opened their HOPE business account after spotting our branch in the University of Arkansas Pine Bluff facility where they were completing a small business program. Aaron says HOPE associates put members’ needs first, and that thread of customer service is woven into what’s become a partnership that educates youth about financial well-being. HOPE conducts financial workshops for the teens. “We chose HOPE as a financial partner,” Aaron says. “We see HOPE as a community partner.”
