Join us for a virtual workshop dedicated to healthy financial decision-making

Building a healthy future includes caring for our financial well-being—and doing it together. Guided by an Accredited Financial Counselor, this monthly series creates a welcoming space to learn, ask questions, and connect with neighbors who share similar goals.
What Is a Moai?
A Moai is a social support group formed around a shared purpose. Originating in Okinawa, Japan, the word Moai means “meeting for a common purpose.”
In Blue Zones Project communities, Moais help people build lasting connections while supporting one another’s goals—whether social, financial, health-related, or beyond.
Additional Details

Free to attend
Each workshop lasts approximately 2 hours
Kids Corner available with Blue Zones-inspired activities for youth, making it easier for caregivers to participate
Designed to break the stigma around talking about finances by creating a supportive learning environment

Space is limited for each session, so early registration is strongly recommended.
Register today to secure your spot and invest in your financial well-being—together.
