About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours 30 minutes

United Way of King County invites you to a dynamic panel discussion exploring the racial wealth gap—and what it takes to close it. Rooted in our Bridging the Wealth Gap campaign, this conversation will unpack how systemic inequities have shaped access to wealth, and how local leaders are working to shift the narrative.

Come to learn, connect, and be part of the solution.

The discussion will be moderated by United Way of King County President and CEO Gordon McHenry Jr., and feature the following panelists:

  • Edwin Rios, United Way of King County
  • Korbett Mosesly, Washington State Department of Commerce
  • Kathleen Hosfeld, HomeStead Community Land Trust

Interactive component: Live audience participation followed by a Q&A session.

Generational wealth is one of the clearest indicators of economic opportunity—but in the U.S., it’s deeply tied to race. This event will shine a light on the barriers and opportunities for wealth-building in BIPOC communities and highlight the innovative ways our region is working toward a more equitable future.

This event is open to nonprofit professionals, community leaders, policy and systems-change advocates, corporate and philanthropic partners, and anyone curious about racial equity and economic justice.

RSVP today to be part of this critical conversation.

We look forward to your voice in this conversation!
