Life can be stressful for young adults learning to live independently. Finding a job, choosing a place to live, and paying for all of today's necessities- cell phones, cable TV, ipods, and lattes- make it difficult for young people to live within their means. How do we help the next generation feel empowered and optimistic about their future? Education is a great start.
Employees of NebraskaLand National Bank taught students at North Platte Community College and North Platte High School on the do’s and don’ts of credit to mark National Get Smart About Credit Day, a financial literacy program sponsored by the American Bankers Association Education Foundation. National Get Smart About Credit Day, October 18th! The presentation is one of many made by bankers across the country as part of a nationwide effort to help young people take charge of their finances. “ The choices young adults make with their first credit card will impact their lives years later when they apply for a car loan of even a mortgage,” said Dana Hurst, Vice President of Marketing. Assistant Vice President, Teller & Cash Management Manager Sandy Ross, spoke at North Platte High School on October 18th. She discussed how to choose a credit card that fits your needs.

NebraskaLand National Sponsors 2nd Annual Walk A Mile In
Her Shoes
Friday April 13th 2007

NebraskaLand National Bank, KX104 and the NP Volunteer Fire Department teamed up for their second annual Walk A Mile In Her Shoes. This event was on Friday, April 13th at 11:30 a.m. at NebraskaLand National Bank Downtown. This is a Men’s March to
Stop Sexual Assault. Men walk a mile downtown in Women's Footwear! They can form a team of
friends or co-workers, challenge another organization to form a team, or nominate a guy. The catch. If they signed themselves up they pick their choice of Women’s footwear to walk in. If someone else nominated them, that person picks their footwear. One in three women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime. Having the men walk represents many women who have escaped an abusive situation with nothing but their clothes on their back. Many of the women have families to take care of as well as
themselves in an abusive situation. Around $12,000 was raised at this years event. There was close to 60 walkers. This doubled from last year. The money raised will go to help pay off the Rape and Domestic Abuse Shelter.
• 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men will be sexually
abused before they are 18 years old.
•1 in 6 women and 1 in 33 men will be victims of an
attempted or completed rape.
• Sexual Assault is the most rapidly growing violent
crime and is the least reported crime.
Only 16% of sexual assaults are reported.
• 1.3 women are forcible raped each minute. That calculates
to 78 every hour and 1,872 every day.
Out of the 650,000 adult women in the state of Nebraska, 84,000 have been raped at least once in their lifetime.
