FULTON BANK PRESENTS
A JAY-DAY Experience by TEOS Event Design
Culture opens the conversation. Financial knowledge turns it into opportunity. A JAY-DAY experience connecting legacy, entrepreneurship, ownership, and community empowerment.
Some partnerships are simply a fit.
Fulton Forward’s focus on financial literacy, homeownership, and economic empowerment creates a natural foundation for this partnership. JAY-DAY brings those priorities into a welcoming cultural setting where young people, families, creatives, and entrepreneurs can connect learning with their own ambitions.
The centerpiece, THE JAY-Z SCHOOL OF BUSINESS, uses JAY-Z’s entrepreneurial journey as a springboard for practical conversations about credit, business banking, ownership, and long-term wealth building. TEOS Event Design invites Fulton Bank to help turn cultural curiosity into useful next steps.
The opportunity
On JAY-Z's birthday, Baltimore becomes the stage for a three-act cultural experience. Guests move from literacy and art in the morning to business and fashion in the afternoon, then into music and celebration at night.

Fulton-led programming / Proposed experiences
Proposed for co-development with Ms. Dionne Waldron-McNeal and Fulton Bank’s community outreach team. These examples are starting points for the partnership conversation.
Hands-on youth financial literacy: saving, budgeting, needs versus wants, and setting a first financial goal. Connect the Literacy Lounge with lessons guests can take home.
Approachable conversations about credit reports, responsible borrowing, and managing money. Give guests a clear starting point for building financial confidence.
Fulton-led discussions about business banking, separating business and personal finances, cash flow, and preparing for growth. Use ownership stories to open practical conversations.
First steps toward homeownership: readiness, saving, understanding the process, and connecting with Fulton Bank’s educational resources.
Connect saving habits, business ownership, homeownership, and long-term planning with a broader conversation about building assets and generational opportunity.
A relaxed resource lounge where guests can meet Fulton representatives, ask everyday money questions, explore relevant resources, and choose an optional follow-up. No intimidating seminar setting required.
The fit: financial education that is accessible, culturally relevant, and connected to community empowerment. Explore Fulton Bank’s community priorities.
Purpose beyond the party
TEOS Event Design intends for JAY-DAY to raise funds in support of the Shawn Carter Foundation’s educational mission. Selected guest experiences are envisioned to contribute a portion of proceeds, with beneficiary arrangements and contribution details to be finalized.
His journey gives young people, particularly Black boys and girls, the chance to see possibility reflected back at them.
The ambition extends beyond a small local event: an annual destination experience, envisioned for 2026, 2027, and 2028, and a traveling, museum-quality cultural platform. Fulton Bank could help establish a repeatable financial education program that grows with the experience across communities.
