Building stronger, healthier communities

As caring local leaders, we know families and small businesses are truly the heartbeat of our community. When they are growing and thriving, we all benefit. When they are struggling, we all feel the strain — physically, emotionally and financially.

The innovative approach is two-fold:

To teach core money skills to the entire family — at the same time (in their best learning language)
To engage hurting families with positive core financial literacy that is FUN, safe and guided with caring professionals
