NFECs Commitment to Kids & Youth Financial Literacy
Financial habits form young – when kids are between 7 and 9 years old.[1, 2] Youth who are not taught how to manage, value, and work for money lack the skills they need to be self-sufficient. This situation has impact not only on the child’s future finances, but also on self-esteem, relationships, and overall enjoyment of life when he or she matures into adulthood.
We are committed to addressing this social impact issue and have invested the past few years into raising awareness, expanding our product line, and training champions to teach personal finance to kids.
If helping kids prepare for financial realities is important to you – join our campaigns and access our resources.
