Introducing HerFinance Forum
Learn more about HerFinance Forum, our mission, and how you can get involved!
HerFinance Forum is dedicated to helping women take control of their financial future by fostering a direct community where women can directly connect, share, and support each other on their personal finance journeys.

What Is Our Goal?
As more women embrace financial independence, the need for a dedicated community grows. Although content creators and investment services tailored for women (e.g. Ellevest) are on the rise, there remains a gap for a community where women can directly connect and support each other in their personal financial journeys, especially younger women. Our community aims to provide women with the knowledge and education necessary to manage their finances confidently.
How Does This Work?
HerFinance Forum facilitates its community over Slack where users can connect, share resources, discuss personal finance, and support each other. Users are free to add channels as they see fit, and the HerFinance Forum will moderate to ensure a respectful environment.
This Medium publication serves as a central space for writers to contribute to all things related to women and financial literacy, including but not limited articles about:
- Financial Literacy (e.g. What’s the Difference Between a Normal Savings Account and. High Yields Savings Account?)
- Personal Finance Journey. What propelled you to manage your finances? How did your perspective change over time?
- Analyses on Current Events (Did you know that $30 trillion in U.S. wealth is expected to transfer to women in the next 10 years?)
We all have questions, and we all have a story. Reading about our peers’ often helps us see how otherwise unfamiliar practices could fit into our lives. You never know who and how many you could help and inspire by sharing your story.
