Family Financial Fun Nights: Coming to Your School Soon!
NCCEE has been hosting fun, financial literacy nights for elementary and high school students and their families. Family Financial Fun Nights are after-school events that teach money management skills through hands on activities. Broadwell College of Business had a turnout of 157 attendants from two neighboring high schools. Students and family members had a great time with volunteer presenters who guided them through a series of games that encouraged conversation about personal finance. Families participated in the “Bean Game” a budgeting scenario that allots fifteen “beans” to spend on expenses for the month, then shared around the room what they spent the “beans” on, and why.
