The American Heart Association is addressing women's financial challenges through a complimentary webinar designed to reduce stress and provide practical estate planning guidance. The one-hour online session will feature financial expert Stacy Francis and offer strategies for women to secure their financial futures.
Women face distinctive financial hurdles, including longer life expectancies, income disparities, and increased caregiving responsibilities. By 2030, women are expected to control a significant portion of the $30 trillion held by the baby boomer generation, making financial literacy increasingly crucial.
The webinar will cover critical topics such as creating estate plans, navigating life transitions like widowhood or divorce, and developing strategies for sustained income. Participants will learn how to build financial resilience and create plans that reflect their personal values.
Marsha Jones, American Heart Association volunteer board chair, emphasized the importance of empowering women to make informed financial decisions. The session aims to provide practical tools that support women's overall health and well-being by reducing financial uncertainty.
Attendees will receive complimentary estate planning guides and gain insights from Francis, who has provided financial education to over 20,000 women through her nonprofit, Savvy Ladies™. The webinar represents part of the American Heart Association's broader mission to support healthier, more financially secure communities.
