Good morning. With the elections right Around the corner, I wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts on a few issues facing our city and the ideas I have to address these issues.

Now is not the time to sit back and watch. Now more than ever we need leadership, we need people that are going to have the courage to stand up and do the right thing.

Please help me spread the word
By sharing this video.

4 more days left until the big election. I woke up this morning proud of the race I’ve ran; focused on the issues our community faces and providing real solutions.

Above all, the one thing I’m most proud of is to be endorsed by the people of this community. No backing fom any politicians but rather the people. As It should be. My approach has always been people before politics-do the right thing for us all with no agenda.

Thankful for the support of many; it keeps me going.

Please vote Ed Nuñez on November 4th.

As Vice-Chair of the Government Affairs Committee for the Realtors Association of Pioneer Valley (RAPV), I help advocate for pressing issues facing our community on the state level.

Past areas include: transportation improvements, parks and greenways, and private property rights to name a few. This year’s priority has been the affordability of housing, and what the involved parties can do to help.

Each year, we go to the statehouse in Boston to address our legislators. I wish you could see this committee in action. Relentless doesn’t even begin to describe the level of passion demonstrated by the members of this committee when they are fighting for us.

I believe these relationships and advocacy can only help our city if I’m elected to the city council.

Please vote Ed Nuñez on November 4th.

I want to thank Roberts for inviting me in to talk to the students about my career.

If you know me, you know I’ve always been passionate about our youth. Having been raised by a single mom who was on public assistance, we oftentimes struggled which led to a transient childhood for me.

One thing I’ve learned in my 2 decades of being involved in the Springfield Public Schools is that we have some great kids who are in situations through no fault of their own.

In 2012 when Putnam Technical Academy opened, I was on an advisory panel who was seeking a financial institution to go into the new school. The city sent out an RFP 2 times and not a single Financial Institution replied. I went to the President of Freedom Credit Union, where I worked, and asked him to look long and hard at responding to the RFP.

The result was the creation of a program where the students at Putnam were given paid internships to work the high school branch. Several years later, the branch is no longer at the school but Freedom still continues to hire kids.

Just the other day I stopped at the Cooley st branch and saw students working behind the teller line. It made me happy to see our kids being hired still to this day and being introduced to careers in the financial sector. Thank you to Freedom Credit Union for continuing to invest in our youth. If I’m elected, I will advocate for more companies operating in Springfield to do the same and hire our kids.

Two weeks left until the big day. At the end of the day, all politics are local so I hope folks take the time to exercise their right to vote. Here’s a little clip on one of the reasons why I’m running.

Conducting financial literacy presentations is something that I’ve always been passionate about, as this is a subject that was not discussed in my home (I was raised in a single parent household by a mom who moved to this country when she was 18). As a young adult, I ruined my credit, and it took me several years to dig myself out of that hole.

In 2006 while working for a local credit union, the President at the time decided to launch a financial literacy program. He asked me to spearhead the task and I did not hesitate. I was sent to trainings and became a NEFI certified counselor. From there, we created curriculum and conducted presentations throughout various school systems in the pioneer valley.

Our largest program was in Springfield, as we quickly discovered that this was the district that needed it the most. I conducted these presentations at several Springfield schools and spoke to students about financial concepts such as delayed gratification, budgeting and credit. In addition, we created a savings program where the credit union provided the initial deposit to open a saving account to any child who wanted to participate in the savings program.

Almost 20 years later, the work still continues. Thousands of students have gone thru the program and although I no longer work at the credit union, the program still thrives. So this morning, I take a moment to thank crosby, who was the President of the credit union at the time, for having the vision to implement a program that was desperately needed in our region.

Thank you Barry for choosing me to lead this endeavor and for sending me to training. P.S.- I’m still doing the work you tasked me to do.
