Socially Responsible Investing
Who We Are
The Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) Education Circle is a new member circle at WDN, focused on educating WDN members to use their investment portfolios to enhance their ability to achieve their asperations for Social Change. One of our primary goals is to teach the membership how to leverage their power as shareholders, trustees, and directors and to have a meaningful voice in the coporate boardroom.
What We Do
We work to bring information to the group that empowers them to use their assets to achieve their personal goals and encouraging the membership to expand their investment universe to include investments that may or may not have been part of their existing strategy. Our goals as a circle include the following:
- Conference calls on the topic of Socially Responsible Investing
- Annual mini-conference focusing on SRI
- Suppling the membership with resources to help them formulate a personal stragegy
