Keys to Success: Congratulations to Sastia!

Congratulations to Sastia, our newest Keys to Success participant!

Sastia graduated from the Pharmacy Technician program in April of 2021 and was immediately hired at the CVS Pharmacy in Smithfield. She enjoyed her job but without a car, transportation was a struggle. Sastia was relying on the bus, rides from friends and expensive ride hailing services.

She enrolled in Keys to Success and just completed her savings goal in time to purchase a 2012 Honda Accord. At the same time, Sastia received a raise at work which will help her to maintain her vehicle.

Congratulations, Sastia!

Keys to Success is a matched savings program that allows low-moderate income Rhode Islanders to save money for reliable transportation. Thank you to our partners and funders- Pawtucket Credit Union, Harbor One Bank, Rhode Island Foundation, and BayCoast Bank.
