DE&I Initiative of the Year
In 2022, Mission Wealth partnered with the CFP Board Center for Financial Planning to launch Mission Wealth Scholars, a scholarship program that aims to advance the financial planning profession by providing financial assistance to individuals pursuing CFP® certification who are from populations underrepresented in the profession.
The mission of this Scholarship was to create a more diverse and sustainable financial planning profession so that all Americans can have access to competent and ethical financial planning advice. The Scholarship supports eligible students enrolled in either an undergraduate-level or certificate-level CFP Board Registered Program who come from an underrepresented population within the financial planning profession in terms of gender, race, ethnicity, disability, or sexual orientation, and who have a financial need. The Scholarship awards up to $5,000 per student seeking to complete an undergraduate-level or a certificate-level CFP Board-Registered program, either of which would qualify the student to sit for the CFP® exam.
