We're grateful.

It's the week of Thanksgiving, and we have so much to be grateful for. We've shared Kenyatta's story with many of you, but if you haven't read it yet, please do. Kenyatta is just one of the thousands of students now on the path to future financial stability and success because of all of you, our volunteers and supporters. On behalf of her and all of us at SecureFutures, we thank you.

“I feel encouraged, strong, and brave, because I’m making wiser choices. I feel confident in myself. I’m accomplishing my goals.” Kenyatta, Money Coach alumna

What does the next generation need?

SecureFutures President and CEO Brenda Campbell recently had an opportunity to participate in a panel at the Milwaukee Business Journal's Women of Influence conference, speaking on the topic of creating generational wealth. She shares some thoughts on what the next generation needs in her latest blog post.

Become a Money Coach!

Thank you to all who joined us for our latest "Your Two Cents" event! Several of our Money Coach alumni shared the impact of their time in the program. Fardowso, a current high school senior and Money Coach alumna, shared about a time when she was able to advise a friend on managing her debt with the support of her Money Coach. "Because I had an advisor, somebody that I could ask for help, I was able to help someone who didn't have that. It was pretty cool to see how I could impact other people's lives and help them find a solution from what Money Coach has given me."

Have you been thinking about becoming a Money Coach? If so, now is the time! We're in the process of matching coaches with teens for spring 2020. As a Money Coach, you'll work with a team of volunteers to provide one-on-one and small group mentoring to teens over the course of a semester. If you're interested in volunteering for any of our programs, make sure to visit our Current Volunteer Opportunities page to find your next opportunity to make an impact!
