Though we're proud of our measurable outcomes, the true impact of our programs can only be communicated through the words of the students who participate.
Also, if you haven't seen it yet, the video is now up of the two students who told the stories of their Money Coach experience at this year's Investment Conference. Antonio and Roberto are definitely worth a listen!

YOU can change lives as a Money Coach!
If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity that offers a lasting effect on student lives and are available 3 hours a month for 4 months, then being a Money Coach volunteer may be for you! Money Coach groups meet twice a month and consist of 12-18 students, generally teens from economically disadvantaged families who are in need of a supportive mentor. The Money Coach program is focused on interactive learning and relationship building. As a coach, you join a team of 3 or 4 volunteers, each with a specific role.
