A Message from our 2024 President | |
As we wrap up 2024 and look forward to 2025, I am filled with a sense of gratitude for everything that we have accomplished this year as the Financial Planning Association of Austin.
Our board Directors is committed, more than ever, to fulfill our mission. Our achievements throughout the year are plentiful. Our membership remains strong and growing, with the highest engagement of all of the FPA chapters across the state of Texas. This is a testament to the combination of the content we bring at our monthly meetings, the caliber of people who attend and the community and commerce that we create.
Looking Forward! We are so excited to keep our meetings at the Austin Country Club for 2025. Next year will bring more events dedicated to Women's initiative and NextGen, as well as deepening events for our general membership.
Everything we do is possible because of our incredible Partners. We are so grateful for our current and past partners who make everything we do possible. Through these partnerships were able to bring better content and education to our members. We made great efforts and strived to improve and change our partner levels for 2025. I could not be more proud and excited of what we've created. These new partnerships will create an opportunity for community and commerce, which will only deep in and improve our chapter.
We are growing our board and our partnerships. If you are interested in joining the FPA Board as a board member or a board committee member, please reach out to our incoming president Adam Flagg.
Sincerely, Katherine Phillips, 2024 President
