ABOUT POWER OF THE PURSE
Power of the Purse (POP) is a perfect opportunity to network, have fun and support a cause important to all of us - financially empowering women and their families. Proceeds from this fundraiser benefit United Way Women United-supported initiatives that help our neighbors effectively manage their money and achieve financial goals. Through one-on-one coaching and education, participants learn how to create a budget, reduce debt, improve credit scores, build savings, screen for benefits, earn referrals to affordable services and emergency assistance, and progress their careers.
