Smart Money Choices: Building Financial Literacy for Elementary Students

Help me give my students the tools to become financially responsible through engaging and interactive financial literacy activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jing's classroom raised $239

This project is fully funded

My Project

With your support, my 2nd and 3rd-grade students will learn essential life skills such as budgeting, saving, and making smart spending choices. By providing us with interactive kits, storybooks, and digital resources, you'll let my students gain hands-on experience with real-world financial concepts.

Our project, Smart Money Choices, will culminate in a "Money Management Day," where students will apply their newfound knowledge by making financial decisions using a mock allowance.

This experience will help them develop a solid foundation in financial literacy that will serve them well throughout their lives.

Your donation will go directly toward acquiring the materials needed to make financial education accessible and exciting for these young learners. With the Charles Schwab Foundation doubling every donation, your contribution will have twice the impact in helping students build skills often overlooked in elementary education
