John Boyd, Founder and Lead Wealth Advisor at MDRN Wealth, finds fulfillment in providing pro bono financial literacy education to inmates in Arizona. His initiative aims to equip them with essential financial skills for reintegration into society post-release, reducing the likelihood of recidivism. Boyd’s efforts align with the CFP Board’s recommendation for CFP professionals to commit a minimum of 20 hours annually to pro bono service. This call to action resonates with other advisors like Alvin Carlos and Jamie Lima, who also engage in pro bono work to support underserved communities. While some advisors express concerns about potential challenges, the majority see pro bono work as an essential aspect of their profession, benefiting both individuals and communities.
