Volunteer Spotlight Featuring Luisa Gomez

Luisa has a large presence in her community consistently giving back through her role at Busey along with her personal passions. Luisa knows the importance of financial literacy, and she continues to share this knowledge through a variety of different organizations such as with students at Manual High School, StepUp, and Peoria Youth Build. Whether she is helping students open checking and savings accounts to help prepare for their next stage of life, providing youth access to services as they begin to transition into adulthood, or providing financial literacy to incarcerated work-release program participants, Luisa continues to share her knowledge passionately.

Luisa holds various board positions as well, including ExtraOrdinary Women, an organization known for recognizing women in the community doing extraordinary work who are not always recognized publicly, and Sigma Gamma Rho, Inc. Within this organization, she gives back through the Bloomington/Normal NPHC helping with monthly food banks and the Annual Youth Symposium. Thank you, Luisa, for encompassing what it means to serve with passion!
