FINANCIAL LITERACY 

& PUBLIC SPEAKING

Financial freedom is possible for those who learn about it, plan on it, and work for it. Unfortunately, many parents cannot teach their children this critical subject by their own example. 

 

We can decrease the debit deficit, poverty levels, and the struggles from generation to generation by interactively teaching our youth financial literacy. Below are the programs we offer:

​

Financial Literacy For All (FLFA)

Studies have shown that many young people have little understanding of finance and economics. They are spending and borrowing without knowing that interest builds up, or that credit cards aren’t free money. That's the main reason why people of all ages need to be educated on financial decision making.

​

Young Entrepreneur's Program (YEP)

Young Entreprenuers need to learn and practice the fundamentals of business. YEP will pair all participants with an experienced volunteer business mentor who is on hand to guide them through the challenging early stages of establishing a business. Each mentor would provide specific guidance in business practices with rudimentary and complex business concepts.

Young Public Speakers Academy (YPSA)

Public speaking is listed as the number one fear in the United States. Scientific studies suggest that social phobias commonly begin with shyness in childhood or early adolescence, and progress during adolescence. However, getting over this fear of public speaking can place children in position to succeed on many levels in life. Training, public speaking, and motivational speaking is most lucrative career today. Some people can earn anywhere from $5,000 to more than $100,000 to give a speech.
