INVEST IN THE NEXT GENERATION

Young people are entering adulthood facing decisions about income, banking, credit, debt, saving and investing, often before they have been taught how to confidently manage those decisions.

Young Wealth Sharers Academy, Inc. is working to change that.

We partner with financial institutions, corporations, foundations and community organizations to provide practical financial education to middle and high school students.

Your organization can help prepare the next generation to make stronger financial decisions and build healthier financial futures.

WHY PARTNER WITH YOUNG WEALTH SHARERS?

Financial literacy is more than understanding financial terminology.

We want students to know what to do when money reaches their hands.

Through small, interactive cohorts, students learn how to budget, save, understand banking, use credit responsibly, recognize the cost of debt, understand investing and begin developing their own financial goals.

Our goal is simple:

Teach them before the financial decisions become financial mistakes.

AN 8 WEEK INVESTMENT THAT CAN IMPACT A LIFETIME

Young Wealth Sharers Academy delivers financial education through intentionally small cohorts of approximately 8 to 12 students.

The smaller environment allows students to ask questions, participate in financial activities, discuss real life scenarios and receive greater individual attention.

Students explore:

• Money and income
• Budgeting and expenses
• Banking and saving
• Credit
• Debt and interest
• Investing and compound growth
• Financial goal setting
• Wealth building
• Generational financial responsibility

• Financial confidence
• Financial goal development

As our students progress through the program, we are building measurable outcomes that allow our partners to see what their investment is helping accomplish.
