National economic trends, such as unstable employment, the threat to Social Security as we know it, and the widening gap between wealth and poverty are the basis for the development of Financial Fortitude, the current Economic Development program initiative of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated. Financial Fortitude is a process that will help program participants to set and define goals, develop a plan to achieve them, and to put the plan into action. The process serves as a blueprint to address all aspects of personal finances.
The Financial Fortitude initiative is comprised of ten components and provides a collaboration of information from major economic corporations and other well-known financial institutions. The ten components include: Goal Setting, Financial Planning, Budgeting, Debt Management, Savings & Investments, Retirement Planning, Homeownership, Insurance, Estate Planning, and Entrepreneurship.
The initiative helps members of the Sorority spread financial education throughout their local communities.
We are so grateful to have participated in this past weekend’s 5th Annual Side Hustle Saturday sponsored by the Omaha Alumnae Chapter Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc! There were approximately 50 businesses involved in the event. Our time was well spent connecting with the community and other aspiring entrepreneurs. Thank you Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Omaha Alumnae Chapter for awarding us with a $1000 grant to further our mission to empower our community!
