Create a Lasting Legacy While You Raise Financial Wellness in Your Community
People in your community and all around the country are experiencing tough financial times. Most Americans fall short of the personal finance knowledge and expertise they need to confidently handle the typical financial decisions we all face. This lack of capability leads to problems that affect all aspects of a person’s life – work, personal relationships, self-esteem, and lifestyle.
The country’s debt load – both personal and national – has reached a record high. To make a real difference in this top issue facing the country, we need leadership at the local level to spearhead financial wellness initiatives.
