On Saturday, April 15, at 2:00 p.m. Maggie L. Walker National Historic Site, in partnership with RVA Financial, will host a program on financial literacy. “Tipping the Scale Toward Financial Justice: Financial Literacy Then and Now” will explore the history of financial literacy as a means of empowering communities.
The one-hour program, provided by Chief Financial Officer Cindy Lindsey and Universal Banker Sa’Sha Johnson of RVA Financial, is free and open to the public.
“Financial literacy as a path to social justice was a cause Mrs. Walker championed throughout her life," said Maggie L. Walker National Historic Site Acting Superintendent Alexa Viets. "We are pleased to work with RVA Financial to share this important history.”
