What's something exciting your business offers? Say it here.

Welcome to the Black Friday Wealth Symposium event, proudly presented by the Building Dreams Foundation (B.D.F.).  An empowering movement designed to shift mindsets from consumerism to wealth-building within our communities. More than just an event, it’s a transformative experience focused on financial literacy, homeownership, and sustainable economic growth. 

• Date: Friday, November 29th
• Time: 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
• Location: Harold Washington Cultural Center, Chicago, IL

In a society where consumerism often overshadows long-term financial planning, we aim to provide valuable insights on building wealth. Last year, African Americans spent $6 billion and Latinos spent $4.9 billion on Black Friday—a staggering amount that highlights the urgent need for education on effective financial strategies and investment. We are dedicated to changing this narrative, guiding attendees to prioritize long-term wealth over short-term spending. 

• Expert Panels featuring industry moguls who will share invaluable insights into financial literacy, homeownership, and investing.
• Vendors showcasing products and services that promote financial wellness, homeownership, and entrepreneurial opportunities.
• Networking Opportunities that connect like-minded individuals and businesses committed to fostering economic growth in underserved communities.

We are proud to partner with a variety of organizations and businesses to support our community. Our partnerships play a vital role in expanding our reach and enhancing our ability to provide valuable resources and services to those in need. Through these collaborations, we are able to amplify our impact, creating a network of support that fosters financial literacy, homeownership, and economic empowerment.
