Managing money can sometimes feel overwhelming, but gaining the right knowledge can make you feel more confident and in control. That’s why the Lakeview Hub is hosting a Financial Empowerment & Wellbeing Workshop Day on October 22. These free, easy-to-follow sessions are designed to give you the tools to manage your finances and protect yourself from fraud.
The day begins at 10:30 AM with a Budgeting Workshop. In this session, you’ll learn how to understand the difference between needs and wants, track your spending, and create a simple budget that actually works. We’ll also walk you through important documents like your pay stub, so you know exactly what you’re earning and where your money is going. This session is perfect for anyone who wants to get a better handle on their finances, whether you’re just starting out or looking to get back on track.
In the afternoon, at 1:00 PM, join us for a Fraud Prevention Workshop. Unfortunately, scams are becoming more common, and they can happen to anyone. This session will teach you how to recognize the warning signs of common scams, protect your personal information, and know what to do if you ever find yourself targeted. You’ll also learn where to go for help and how to report fraud safely.
Together, these workshops will give you the knowledge and confidence to make smarter money choices and protect yourself and your family. You don’t need any prior experience with budgeting or finances, just bring yourself and a willingness to learn. By the end of the day, you’ll leave with practical skills that can help you feel more secure and empowered in your everyday life.
