Wells Fargo is a longstanding corporate sponsor of the event that provides a forum for student scholars to gain access to corporate leaders and developmental opportunities.

In the spirit of partnership and commitment to students, Wells Fargo leaders made the decision to move forward with planned company hosted events despite the impending storm. In addition to a meet and greet reception where TMCF students had an opportunity to network with Wells Fargo senior leaders, the company also facilitated multiple workshops and seminars focused on career readiness and financial education. The events were successful, and there were no storm related impacts.
