BALTIMORE, Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Financial Joy School, a free financial education platform for the Black Community, will offer three seminars in the Fall with leading wealth experts, financial resources, and tools to help Black youth and families become long-term investors and build generational wealth.

• October 16, 2021 (12:30 -1:30 pm ET): How to Invest, presented by Kerrie Carden, Founder of EQUIP
• November 20, 2021 (12:30-1:30pm ET): What is a Will and a Trust? presented by Cody Barbo, Founder and CEO of Trust & Will
