The Power of Investing in Financial Literacy

Funded Aug 30, 2021

My scholars were able to build on their understanding of financial literacy starting with the basics, identifying coins/dollars & counting money. The money games we received through your generous donation helped them get regular practice and something to look forward to.

When I first told my students about our new money games and resources they were thrilled and couldn't wait to get their hands on them. Some students would ask me if they could stay in class at their recess to use the games- they loved them!

After learning the basics of money through practice with the money games, students were able to use the literature to build their understanding on financial literacy. At the end of the year, scholars were able to use their knowledge gained to help plan their ideal summer vacation with a budget.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity. I look forward to using these resources with my future scholars.”
