Sixth Annual Metro Washington Financial Planning Day

Free Financial Help from the Experts!

In today’s uncertain economy, planning for you financial future is more important than ever.  If you have financial questions or concerns, or would like to learn how to better manage your finances, District of Columbia and Mayor Muriel Bowser invite you to attend the 6^th Annual Metro Washington Financial Planning Day, where you’ll have an opportunity to receive free, personalized, confidential answers from professional financial planners. The event will be held on Saturday, October 17, 2015 from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm at Columbia Heights Educational Campus in Washington, DC.

Metro Washington Financial Planning Day is organized by the District of Columbia in partnership with the Financial Planning Association of the National Capital Area and AARP DC, and is part of Financial Planning Days – a first-of-its-kind national initiative to provide free financial education and programming to people across the country.  Financial Planning Days was created by four national non-profit organizations – Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Financial Planning Association, Foundation for Financial Planning, and the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

At the event, highly qualified Certified Financial Planner™ professionals will be stationed at tables and will meet with you one-on-one to offer free personalized advice on a variety of financial topics, including – getting out of debt, retirement planning, investment strategies, tax issues, insurance, and estate planning, among many others.

There are no strings attached! All financial planners are participating as volunteers and they will not be selling products or services, or giving out business cards. Come as you are, or come prepared with any financial paperwork related to your questions. And, you can consult with as many different financial planners as you need.

The event will also feature a series of free classroom-style workshop presentations addressing key areas of personal finance, including Financial Planning for Women, Real World Retirement Planning, and Investing Basics: Be a Smart Investor.

Walk-ins are welcome, but admission will be granted first to those who have registered online at www.FinancialPlanningDays.org/DC or by calling toll free at 877-861-7826. We expect a large crowd, so we encourage you to register early.
