Reprise| Arlo Washington, "The Barber of Little Rock"

Up in Your Business with Kerry McCoy

Originally Aired 6/24/2022 This week on Up in Your Business with Kerry McCoy, we interview Mr. Arlo Washington, president of PEOPLE Trust Loan Fund, a financial institution offering small loans to neighbors in need. Arlo is a self-made man with a Cinderella story. He is the epitome of a hardworking, creative entrepreneur, who sees opportunities and listens to where life leads him, all with the heart of a teacher. Learn what the term “unbanked” means and how Arlo turned his barber’s chair into a barber school (Washington Barber School), and his school into a financial institution, eventually founding the PEOPLE Trust Loan Fund, a non-profit financial institution serving low-income communities.
