JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE 10 YEARS OF BRINGING GENDER AND RACIAL EQUITY TO THE FINANCIAL MARKETS
| |
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the founding of Rock The Street, Wall Street.
Since launching our first cohort in 2012, we’ve taken our program international and expanded our footprint to 63 high schools in 35 cities across the U.S., U.K., and Canada, serving as a bridge for change.
Now, it’s time to celebrate! All of you played a crucial role in helping us move the pipeline for women in the financial industry and we encourage you to participate in the storytelling and celebrations this coming year.
BE A PART OF HISTORY & SHARE YOUR FAVORITE RTSWS MEMORY!

A Quote From RTSWS BOARD CHAIR
“I believe a diverse, collaborative team provides a competitive advantage when making investment decisions. Rock The Street, Wall Street, (RTSWS), will help us build those diverse teams. The empowerment and education this organization provides is changing the future of finance. I’ve been in too many investment meetings where women and particularly women of color, are underrepresented, and I’m proud to participate in a program that helps to bridge the gender and racial gaps and encourages more young women to be the financial leaders of tomorrow. We face critical markets ahead, and these young women have so much potential to shape our industry for the better. Congratulations to RTSWS on the first ten years – I can’t wait to see what the next ten years look like!”
- Anders Hall, CFA, RTSWS Board Chair, Vice Chancellor for Investments, and Chief Investment Officer at Vanderbilt University

We are excited to announce the expansion of our program to London, thanks to our sponsor, Värde Partners!
This fall, our Värde volunteers will go into the local high schools to teach hands-on workshops about finance, investments, and capital markets, as well as provide mentoring relationships at the Mulberry School for Girls in London.
We are thrilled that Värde is expanding their RTSWS sponsorship from one city to three! Värde vols will be teaching the RTSWS curriculum in Minneapolis, NYC, and London. They now join JP Morgan, Invesco, LPL, EY, Franklin Templeton, and PWC as a sponsor of RTSWS cohorts in multiple cities - building relationships with the next generation in every city their in.
