A Career of Impact: Investing in Yourself and Your Community

Join us on Wednesday, April 27, 2022, at 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET for A Career of Impact: Investing in Yourself and Your Community: an in-depth, multi-workshop event exploring how you can create positive social impacts and support regeneration through your career, your investments, and the ways in which you network and build connections with others. You're welcome to attend just one or all sessions.

Session 1: Investing for Impact 

Session 2: Social Impact Career Landscape & Workshop

Session 3: Career Networking & Connection Building

This event is an opportunity to:

• Gain a better understanding of the social impact career landscape, trends, and predictions for emerging career fields.
• Help you connect (or reconnect!) with your purpose and gain practical tools to guide you in your career journey to create a better world for yourself and others.
• Learn about the ways in which your banking, investment, and other financial decisions can promote positive impacts for your community and the planet.
• Connect and network with fellow members of the Net Impact community, professionals, and social impact companies.

This sixth event in our Regenerative Economy series will provide opportunities to engage, learn, and connect as you delve deeper into exploring how the choices you make regarding your career and money can spark lasting social change. The event will spotlight three core areas where you can create an impact and support regeneration: 1. How you save and invest your money, 2. How you navigate your career, and  3. The connections and partnerships you build.

Part 1: Investing for Impact, 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET

The first part of this event will focus on how you can create an impact as an individual through choices you make regarding your own personal finances, including how you structure your investments and 401K and what financial institutions and banks you choose to utilize for your savings.
