FPA serious about social responsibility
The Financial Planning Association (FPA) has rolled out the next phase in the development of its social responsibility initiative with the launch of the Future2 website.
The FPA unveiled the Future2 foundation at its national conference last November, announcing that it would enable the financial planning industry to give back to the community by supporting the financially underprivileged.
The new website, www.future2foundation.org.au, allows for donations to be made online and has information about the different community projects supported by the foundation.
Users can also register as Friends of Future2 to receive electronic newsletters about the foundation’s achievements in the community.
The FPA also plans to launch a pro bono advice database on the website.
