5 for the Future Webinar

Iowa is entering a significant period of wealth transfer. Nearly $30.4 billion in Iowa assets is expected to transfer to the next generation by 2030, but many of the people receiving that wealth no longer live in the communities where it was built.

What if 5% of the wealth built here stayed here?

Join us for an engaging conversation with Ben Winchester of University of Minnesota Extension as he shares projections from the Iowa Transfer of Wealth study and helps us see the potential impact when some of our community’s wealth stays local.

October 27 • 12 PM • Virtual

This webinar is hosted in partnership with the Cedar Falls Community Foundation and US Bank.
