2020 is officially coming to a close. As we look to the new year, we want to thank our fearless leader Ingrid Strauss for serving as this year's FPA MN Board President.
When Ingrid took the helm of our chapter last January, strengthening connections among members and with the broader Minnesota public were among her top priorities. Who knew that a public health crisis would soon make in-person events impossible!
Under Ingrid's leadership, our chapter's commitment to fostering connections was steadfast. We quickly transitioned to virtual events, switching over everything from coffee socials to our annual ASCEND Conference.
We also helped raise awareness for our profession in the broader community. Financial Planning Day became a virtual week-long event, helping more than a hundred people get free financial advice in a year where it is desperately needed. In addition, our chapter's dedication to encouraging more women to become financial planners was spotlighted by the
Star Tribune.
In a year of unprecedented challenges, we're proud of all that was accomplished. Thank you, Ingrid, for making it possible!
