DETROIT-After donating a bank branch to U-Snap-Bac, an agency that helps with low-income housing in the city, Bank One also provides a construction loan to renovate the branch.

The renovated building is now U-Snap-Bac’s administrative office and center for its community outreach programs, which includes first-time homebuyer workshops, financial literacy classes, and a host of informative community meetings and seminars. U-Snap-Bac also helps low-income residents with home repairs, conducts a crime-prevention program and provides business incentive grants to maintain andpromote small businesses.

U-Snap-Bac will share its new meeting rooms and office resources with the many neighborhood associations and block clubs it assists, says Linda Smith, the organization’s executive director.
