Money Talk$ Financial Literacy Program

We cultivate financial thrivers

To support our mission, NWF recognizes the importance of sharing ‘a wealth of knowledge’ with our youth. Our culturally relevant and age-appropriate financial literacy curriculum is designed to increase personal finance knowledge, break the patterns of debt, and generate a new cycle of wealth – long overdue in the communities we serve.
