Financial Literacy 101

A strong foundation of financial literacy can help support various life goals, such as saving for educational expenses or retirement, using debt responsibly, and running a business. Understanding basic financial principles, knowing how to budget, invest, and borrow responsibly can help students make better financial decisions.

Our goal is to provide students with the tools and resources to help build their financial literacy knowledge, to help understand their finances, and to help better develop their money management skills.
