Ready Life Announced as Presenting Sponsor For The 2022 Denny's Orange Blossom Classic

Ready Life Announced as Presenting Sponsor For The 2022 Denny
Posted By: Kennedy Williams on June 14, 2022

The Denny's Orange Blossom Classic (OBC) is pleased to announce Ready Life, the innovative fintech solution creating generational Black wealth by enabling first-time home purchases and lowering costs on merchants, as its presenting sponsor for the sophomore return of the Classic to be held in Miami Gardens, FL, September 1 - 4th, 2022, at Hard Rock Stadium.

"As a Black-owned fintech, our mission is deeply personal. Ready Life is a platform built on the technology of the future to address a problem as old as this country itself: the struggle of Black families to build real generational wealth," Ashley D. Bell, founder and CEO of Ready Life, said. "We're going to make it possible for families to buy their first home no matter their credit and for small businesses to scale their operations no matter their zip code."

When consumers use Ready Life's mobile banking platform to pay their rent on time, members will be able to qualify for a mortgage-no credit score needed.

"When Dr. Bernice King and I founded this company, we understood that we needed the right technology and team. Our world-class board of advisors is comprised of former executives of some of the largest personal finance platforms in the world, including the former CEO and CTO of SoFi and Figure, as well regulatory experts from the Federal Reserve and the White House," Bell added.

Thousands of HBCU students, alumni, and fans will converge in Miami Gardens this Labor Day weekend to watch the match-up of HBCU football and marching band powerhouses Florida A&M University Rattlers and Jackson State University Tigers-all in the name of community enrichment, empowerment, educational advancement, and family fun.



"Florida A&M and Jackson State alumni are investors and leaders at Ready Life, so we couldn't envision a better venue to introduce our game-changing platform than this historic rivalry celebrating the best of our community on and off the field," says Bell.

As the presenting sponsor of Denny's Orange Blossom Classic, Ready Life's support helps advance the OBC's mission of empowering the communities they serve.

The Denny's Orange Blossom Classic is more than a good-natured football rivalry and a platform to celebrate HBCUs. The Denny's Orange Blossom Classic continues to be centered on community advancement. One of the ways in which it fulfills this purpose is through the establishment of community-focused partnerships.

"We proudly welcome Ready Life to the Denny's Orange Blossom Classic family as our presenting sponsor. Ready Life's mission aligns with our commitment to creating One Big Community by supporting education initiatives and providing an economic infusion into the communities we serve. We are pleased that they have chosen this opportunity to introduce their family of products to the community," stated Kendra Bulluck-Major, Executive Director of the Orange Blossom Classic Committee.
