Advisors Dedicate Time And Resources To Community Outreach At The TD Ameritrade Institutional 2013 National Conference

TD Ameritrade Institutional1 announces community outreach activities at the 2013 National Conference in San Diego, Calif., Jan. 30 - Feb. 2. Nearly 3,000 independent registered investment advisors (RIAs) and industry influencers from across the country will have the opportunity to participate in activities to support the American Red Cross, Habitat for Humanity, and the Foundation for Financial Planning.

“Whether it’s with a hammer or financial planning tools, advisors are passionate about helping people improve their lives. I’m always inspired to hear the different ways advisors choose to give back to their communities and we wanted to harness some of that energy at our National Conference,” said Tom Nally, president, TD Ameritrade Institutional. “San Diego is home to nearly 500 TD Ameritrade associates and their families, as well as many of our advisor clients. We look forward to rolling up our sleeves and working side by side with RIAs to make a positive impact on the community.”
