Local Organization Encouraging Community to become Financially Independent

LOGAN, Utah— The Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) is an organization that tries to educate members of the community on ways to get out of debt and make wise investments.

Preston Parker, president of CVAIA created the organization to help people learn to think about opportunities and money differently. Parker said, “There is not a normal finance class in high school that teaches people about these opportunities.”

The CVAIA meets bi-monthly and often brings in guest speakers like CPAs and mortgage brokers to answer questions for the group.

When asked about his motive for opening the group, Parker said, “I’m sick of people hating their jobs and feeling stuck.” One of the goals of the group is to help people get enough passive income that they don’t have to work, “But they still can work, and they do and they love it!” said Parker.

CVAIA meetings are open to anyone. The group meets every other Thursday at 7 p.m. They meet at the Cache Chamber of Commerce at 116 N. Main St. The next meeting will be Feb. 21.

It is good. The one part that caught my eye was the 4th paragraph. It begins more like a news story. Just say that Parker said it. You don't have to comment that he was asked. Remember, you are supposed to be part of the organization. You should be from the same perspective as him.

Nice headline and dateline.

In your lead, I would drop "tries" and "get out of debt" as they are doubtful and inaccurate, respectfully.

You off-set my title with commas but forgot the second comma, after CVAIA.

I like your high school quote and approve all your quotes.

I would remove the "bi-monthly" reference as it will confuse most people.

Nice boilerplate.
