Financial power begins with knowledge. This initiative equips families with the tools to save, spend wisely, build credit, and prepare for wealth — starting now.

Money Lessons & Knowledge is a live, interactive virtual experience introducing students, families, schools, and communities to accessible financial education training and trusted local resources.

The event serves as an on-ramp—moving participants from awareness → confidence → continued learning—while connecting them to ongoing financial education opportunities available locally and nationally. FINANCIAL KNOWLEDGE is a life skill and leadership tool, and this message needs to be amplified.
