After years traveling the country teaching financial education, I am excited to announce a financial education series in my home state of New Hampshire. As you know, I am selective when picking partners and I simply couldn’t be happier with the “public-first” attitude displayed by Total Candor’s partners in this initiative:
- New Hampshire Public Television
- Business NH Magazine (Millyard Communications)
- The University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension Program
Together, we will host three events this spring, including a March event in Durham, an April event in Manchester, and a May event in Plymouth. For more information or to register, visit this page. To watch a promo video appearing every few minutes on Public TV (take that Big Bird), click here.
Hope to see you on March 9 (or shortly thereafter)!
