The 2016 event series will kick off with a “Smart With Your Money Financial Opportunity Clinic” on Saturday, Feb. 20 at San Diego OASIS where attendees will be able to learn about personal finances, retirement, investing, insurance, budgeting and saving.
“We are excited to support the San Diego Financial Literacy Center on this collective impact project,” said Jon Dauphiné, executive director, Foundation for Financial Planning. “The Smart With Your Money Financial Opportunity Clinics will provide members of the San Diego community access to pro-bono financial professionals in one-on-one sessions to help develop their financial well-being.”
The goal is to develop a collective impact that will have far reaching benefits for the entire community. Special attention will be paid to the lowest socioeconomic neighborhoods, as well as military and Spanish-speaking populations.
“We are committed to helping all San Diegans achieve financial stability. We aim to break the cycle of money mismanagement and a key step to doing that are these free financial planning clinics,” said Brad Pagano, co-founder and managing director, San Diego Financial Literacy Center. “We are honored to work with the Foundation for Financial Planning as well as members of the Financial Education Alliance of San Diego (FEASD) to provide guidance on the most pressing financial concerns of the citizens of San Diego County.”
