Jaclyn Bird of the financial services firm Edward Jones promised when she opened her business in 2016 that she would become an active member of the community. Bird is keeping that promise and recently accepted the position of president of the Chamber Ambassadors.

“I share the firm’s philosophy that we shouldn’t just work in the communities where we establish our offices – we should live in those communities and we should contribute to those communities,” Bird said. “I hope I can make a difference, even if it is a small one, by giving my time and energy to Chamber Ambassadors.”

Edward Jones encourages its financial advisors to become involved in their communities. They can do a better job of providing advice to their clients if they know their values, appreciate their lifestyles and understand their upbringing.

Community involvement also demonstrates the financial advisors’ commitment to the people they serve.

Jaclyn Bird’s office is located at 1405 15th AVE NW, Suite B, Austin, MN 55912.
