Bank of Ann Arbor branch manager Tamar Jones said she had her grandmother in mind when she accepted the position of YMOW board member in 2025. Tamar frequently visited her grandmother in the senior living facility where she lived, but saw others who did not receive regular human interaction.
She said YMOW’s commitment to providing relief from social isolation resonated with her.
“I like that they get some type of interaction,” she said of YMOW clients.
An Eastern Michigan University graduate with a degree in marketing and advertising, Tamar is part of YMOW’s marketing and development committee. Throughout the community, she serves as a financial literacy volunteer, teaching seniors how to avoid scams and sharing the importance of saving with young consumers.
A resident of Superior Township, Tamar said she hopes to leverage her role with YMOW to encourage others in the community to support its work and mission.
