WEV Receives Additional Citibank Contribution

Citibank


In November, WEV received an additional contribution of $15,000 from Citibank’s Community Relations Division. Since 2002, Citibank has been a valued partner in providing economic development services to low and moderate income entrepreneurs in both Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. WEV would like to express its warm thanks on behalf of its clients and staff for Citi’s ongoing and generous support.
