To assist the Boys and Girls Club in their endeavors, the employees presented a financial education program, which included information about banking, money, income, expenses, and wants versus needs. They also read a story about money, had piggy bank races, and played a “Money Smart” board game with the students to help them develop the financial knowledge and tools they need to make informed and successful financial decisions. 08/02/2023 12:00 AM
