This Is Britt A.M., Episode 47, Black History Month and Black Lives Matter

BLMlogo.jpg

February was Black History Month, and on this first day of March, I hope to continue the conversation of the importance of racial equality and black presence, history, and experience in our society past the month of February. I hope to present today’s tracks, and a Ted Talks interview with the founders of Black Lives Matter, from a place of support and solidarity, with acknowledgement of my privilege as a white person.

Disability Insurance as a Financial Strategy

risk-insurance.jpg

We talked to Kevin Plouffe of MPY Financial Strategies here in Prince George to discuss how insurance can actually be used as a financial strategy. Good to know if you're striking it out on your own, you've finished school, starting a new business, are in the work force, or heading into the work force. Whatever industry you're in or headed towards, there is likely a risk associated with it. The opportunity to learn how to mitigate it is here.#howtohedgeyourbets!

You can catch a free seminar on the topic on March 6th @ UNBC's Senate Chambers 1-3 pm @ CNC's Rm 1306 4-6 pm It's open to the public, questions are welcome, with snacks and refreshments provided.

You read it right! CFUR volunteers now have access to our whole wide Physical Library (Because naturally... sharing is caring) So, if needing another incentive to be a CFUR volunteer was at all necessary, we def created another sweet perk of the job ;) ;)

A sign up sheet is located beside the studio door entrance. You fill it out and take it out!

Simple as that :) we hope you enjoy this sweet, beautiful, wonderful, community service ;)
