Financial Literacy workshops were developed because personal finance has changed significantly over the last generation. Our current environment is much more risker since its significantly easier to make financial mistakes and be financially ruined based off of one mistake. Thus is it imperative to understand your personal finances in today's economy.
This program will aid in decreasing the epidemic of financial distress. Our participants learn the following based on the workshops they attend:
- Learn the Power of Saving
- Simple budget
- Building positive credit
- Saving for an emergency
- Separating Need vs. Wants
- How to read bank statements
- How to read and understand credit card, debit card and loan offers
- How much money they actually have and how to access it
