$ WCWI to Host 2nd Annual Financial Literacy Conference

By Meltrice D. Sharp

As you may know, I’m extremely passionate about financial literacy and empowering women to take control of their finances, break generational curses of poverty and begin creating generational wealth and legacy. I believe the relationship between generational and community wealth is essential to leaving an enduring legacy, and it is this belief that drives my work. As a matter of fact, I’ve spent many years of my career coaching, speaking, and teaching financial literacy and accounting.

Because of my passion and commitment to this work, I founded Women Creating Wealth & Impact (WCWI). WCWI’s mission is to provide a safe platform that will inspire, empower, educate, and transform the financial futures of women through the practical application of sustainable financial techniques. Our vision is to be a leading organization in the advancement and transformation of women’s financial competencies and practices, impacting their legacy and manifesting generational wealth.

WCWI will host its 2nd Annual Wealth Conference, August 18-20, 2023. The conference will be held at the Westin Cleveland downtown. During this conference, women will participate in a robust curriculum and leave with tangible tools and resources that will transform their financial futures. Women will assess their current understanding of what it means to be financially literate, learn the key components of financial wellness, identify their personal SMART goals, develop and customize a personal strategy to achieve their goals in the following areas:

• Financial Planning/Budgeting

• Estate Planning

• Credit Restoration/Debt Consolidation

• Retirement Planning, Investment, and Insurance

• Entrepreneurship

• Real Estate Investing

• Advanced Investing for Wealth & Legacy

• Investing in Franchises

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, “When you teach a man, you teach an individual, but when you teach a woman, you teach a nation.” A nation rises on the wisdom that is imparted to women.
