Introducing Stacks House, A Revolutionary Pop-Up Destination Promoting Women's Financial Literacy

NEW YORK, March 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Award-winning personal finance expert, bestselling author and award-winning "So Money" podcast host Farnoosh Torabi, along with co-founders and experiential mavens Kindra Meyer and Patience Ramsey, today announced a new venture: Stacks House™.  A touring, ticketed destination kicking off in Los Angeles this April – Financial Literacy Month – Stacks House is a pop-up with a purpose to promote women's financial literacy and help close the gap between women and wealth in America.  

Like pop-up sensations The Museum of Ice Cream, Color Factory and 29 Rooms, Stacks House is a visual spectacle, sensory experience and Instagram playground – with a twist. Inside Stacks House, stationed in DTLA's burgeoning Arts District, attendees will find a series of themed rooms taking on an often-taboo subject – money – in exuberant, celebratory fashion.

"For women, money isn't just power – it's freedom. Freedom to make choices, walk away from bad situations and live life on our own terms, said Torabi, a contributor to O, The Oprah Magazine, Goop and The Today Show. "Collectively, women will control two-thirds of the wealth in the U.S. within a decade. Yet we earn less, save less and pay more for things than our male counterparts, creating additional obstacles to our financial freedom. With Stacks House, we're equipping women with the inspiration, and information, to realize their own financial potential."

Stacks House is the first major initiative from She Stacks™ – a new startup by women, for women, hell bent on financially empowering women through an ecosystem of content, experiences and products. According to Meyer, "We want to show women that wealth-building doesn't have to be boring. With She Stacks, we're making financial literacy simple, sexy and social."

Why start with a pop-up? Says experiential marketing veteran Ramsey, "There's an increasing amount of quality financial content out there dedicated to women, which is fantastic. Our goal is to take that content to the next level and add layers of experience, community and glamour." Adds Torabi, "It's our intention to bring Stacks House to women across the country – from cities like Minneapolis and Austin to Chicago and Detroit – as a listening tour to find out what women really want, and need, to support their financial ambitions."

Each room within Stacks House is designed around key financial goals such as earning more, saving, eliminating debt and investing wisely. From the Debt Boxing Gym and the Retirement Rodeo to the Money Moves Room and the Gold Bar, visitors will enjoy over-the-top, participatory experiences that marry useful information with messages of empowerment.

Stacks House is thrilled to announce Zelle® as the presenting sponsor of Stacks House. Zelle is a fast and easy way to send money in minutes¹ to friends and family, using only a recipient's email address or U.S. mobile number. To get started, visit www.zellepay.com.
