Educational & Other Resources

At Chicory Wealth we believe in the importance of financial literacy and providing resources to expand people’s knowledge of their finances and how they can use their resources to support their values. We hope you find these resources helpful.

 

Impact Investing Webinar Series

Early in 2022, the Women Donors Network held a series of educational webinars on impact investing, hosted by Chicory Wealth CEO Maggie Kulyk. We’re happy to provide the recordings of the four sessions of these webinars to increase the knowledge of and interest in this type of investing. We’re also providing an accompanying document that lists the speakers in each webinar and associated resources on the topics.

For My Loved Ones at the Time of My Death

Chicory Wealth is offering a free workbook to make it easy for you to communicate critical information to your loved ones when you pass away. We understand that thinking and talking about the end of life can be difficult and uncomfortable, but we have also seen first-hand how important such communication is to those who are left behind. Preparing ahead to make our loved ones’ decisions easier at the time of our death is one of the best gifts we can give them. This workbook is available in two versions: one in Microsoft Word, for those who want to fill out an electronic version (always password-protect such documents if you keep them on your computer), and another in PDF, to be printed out and filled out by hand. IMPORTANT: This workbook is not a legal document and does not replace your important estate documents. It also should be updated regularly.
