Bridging the gap
The Financial Literacy program at Beyond Our Kin addresses a critical gap in education for foster youth, offering them the knowledge and tools to manage their finances effectively. This initiative is designed to provide foster youth with a strong foundation in financial literacy, covering essential topics such as budgeting, saving, investing, and understanding credit. In partnership with the Grant Cardone Foundation, we've developed a fun, interactive, and relatable workshop program that demystifies financial concepts and promotes a mindset of financial success.
Practical Lessons
Our curriculum includes practical lessons on finance, savings (including opening savings accounts for youth), networking, building confidence, career planning, and entrepreneurship. By navigating the fundamentals of personal finance, our program aims to prepare foster youth for self-sufficient living, equipping them with the skills to make informed financial decisions and thrive in their journey to adulthood.
