Just a boost, or maybe a new start—

With twenty years of ranch work behind him, Jeff often thought about making a change. He figured unless he owned a place, there wasn’t much future in ranch work.

The lack of health insurance bothered him, and he needed to be thinking about retiring some day. But saving money for retirement wasn’t even an option with the wages he made.

He’d done a little electrical work over the years and thought it might be worth looking into. When his wife told him about REO, it looked like the opportunity he needed to learn a trade that paid a good wage. If he could get some help to get started, he figured he had the ability and the attitude to do pretty well.

REO offered quite a bit of help. Books, tools and even a portion of his wages were paid to help him begin journeyman electrician’s on-the-job training. At last report, he had nearly half the journeyman hours needed for a license. He enjoys his weekends and evenings off after years of working “24-7.” He’s doing work he enjoys, but now he’s also pursuing his goal of financial security.

REO means opportunity for farm and ranch workers & their families.

Who do you know who could benefit?
