My Project

In our society, financial literacy is a crucial skill that often goes overlooked. By providing our students with the opportunity to explore the concepts of budgeting, saving, investing, and understanding the value of money, we can empower them to make informed decisions that will shape their financial futures. "Mind Your Money" serves as an engaging and accessible tool that presents these complex ideas in a relatable and inclusive manner, ensuring our students can feel confident in the fundamentals of personal finance.

I love this book and I am so excited to bring it to my students as another pathway for them to get excited about money and develop a love for continuing to learn about money outside of the classroom, through other great personal finance books, podcasts, and YouTube channels.

To further enhance my students' learning experience, I am seeking your support to purchase a classroom set of 10 copies of "Mind Your Money." Your contribution would allow us to study the book as part of our financial literacy curriculum and enhance the experience of the future adults of our community and this country. The book is a comprehensive guide that offers practical advice and actionable tips on personal finance management, making it an ideal resource for young adults on the verge of entering the adult world. I am excited to see how the ideas in this book change the futures of these students and future generations that will benefit from the books year after year.
