Over a century ago, Maggie L. Walker declared, "Let us have a bank that will take the nickels and turn them into dollars." She built more than a financial institution - she built access, ownership, and economic dignity for Black families.
 
Saturday, April 18, Maggie L. Walker NHS and Peoples Bank invite you to a financial literacy symposium for women that continues that legacy. Join us for a powerful day of education, strategy, and sisterhood held at the site of the bank that Maggie Walker once chaired.
 
Together we will:
  • Build strong financial foundations through budgeting, credit positioning, and debt strategy
  • Explore wealth pathways in homeownership, entrepreneurship, and career growth
  • Gain hands-on support through credit and capital clinics
  • Develop a personal 90-Day Wealth Plan
  • Connect with women who are committed to ownership and generational impact
 
Come ready to learn. Leave ready to execute. Be the Maggie Walker in your family.
