When you think of reaching out to your community, it may be your immediate neighborhood, your borough, or the city as a whole.
Your community may also be a group of people who share an identity, regardless of where they live. For example, they may have children the same age or aging parents they want to help. They may be nearing retirement, coping with debt, or eager to know how to save for the future.
However you define communities, they offer you an exceptional forum for sharing your commitment to financial literacy.
