“Since I’m saving to go back to school, I make sure, no matter what, I take out $100 from each paycheck to go into my savings. No matter what the check amount is, that’s first.” -Ryan |

“I started keeping a bank account and stopped buying things just to buy them.” -Monica
“We [can’t] have everything at the same time; when you accept an opportunity, you are losing another one.” -Chunyan

“I started spending my money responsibly on the things I need first and put my ‘wants’ last.” -Sydnee |

“Instead of swiping my card [for] everything, I take some money out and I have 20 dollars for the week.” -Angela
“I managed to convince one of my friends to not get a credit card since he did not have a job and I was worried he might [get] in debt.” -Esther

“I used to spend a lot of money without creating a budget. When saving money, I just kept it in my drawer. Now I know to save it in the bank so it can gain some money over time and there’s more security involved.” -Tyler |

Impact of Your Donation
Since 2009, we have paid out more than $320,000 in stipends to low-income students. We use the stipend as a teaching tool, instructing students in strategies that revolve around money and decision frameworks—a subject that becomes concrete once they have cash in hand. Yet 94% of our graduates state that by the end of the program, they stayed not because of the money, but for the skills they learned.
Join us in bringing these skills to the youth who need them most.
