First Merchants Bank | The Momentum Series: Building Financial Wellness
July 14 @ 12:00 pm - December 8 @ 1:00 pm

This summer, ICIBE is excited to partner with First Merchants Bank as they launch something we believe our community will benefit from: The Momentum Series: Building Financial Wellness — a free, six-month virtual webinar series featuring real talk, real topics, and real strategies.
This Series:
- Is Free, virtual, and open to the public — no bank account required
- Is Practical education, not a sales pitch
- Will record & share sessions with all registered participants after each session
- Has a $50 Amazon gift card incentive* for the first 100 participants who attend any 3 live sessions
- Is designed with LMI families in mind — but welcoming to all
