CHARLOTTE, N.C., Sept. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The LPL Financial Foundation today announced two new charitable partnerships aligned to the foundation\u2019s focus on advancing the economic well-being of underserved populations, with an emphasis on increasing the diversity of the financial services talent pipeline and providing resources to small business owners in underserved communities.

\n
\n LISC<\/a> is a nonprofit institution that supports community development initiatives across the nation. With the Foundation\u2019s grant, LISC will provide high-touch, specialized support and technical assistance to at least 100 small businesses led by entrepreneurs of color, specifically targeting the Charlotte and San Diego markets. According to a recent Federal Reserve Bank survey, this year approximately 9 million of roughly 30 million small businesses in the U.S. are at risk of closing for good due to the ongoing pandemic. Support from the Foundation will help improve the financial stability of businesses and is expected to increase sales, improve employee retention and increase capacity to hire new employees, among other benefits.<\/p>\n

\n The American College of Financial Services<\/a> will use the Foundation\u2019s grant to establish The LPL Financial Foundation Equity Scholars Program. The new career-readiness program will be designed to increase and retain the number of financial services professionals from underserved communities, with a focus on African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, veterans, women and the LGBTQ community. Scholarships will be awarded to qualified candidates who pursue designations such as CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER\u2122 (CFP\u00ae<\/sup>), Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP\u00ae<\/sup>), Wealth Management Certified Professional (WMCP\u00ae<\/sup>), or other financial education programs.<\/p>\n
