Economic Smart Fair Held in conjunction with other organizations in the Greater Houston Area, the Economic Smart Fair provides workshops sponsored for the community with various sessions led by presenters from Washington Mutual, Gerald Smith of Smith Graham & Company, and Carla Cargle of Genesis One Wealth Builders. The primary focus of this workshop was to provide literature on wealth building, credit scores, and other useful economic information.
