Mentor Students in Financial Literacy for a Day

Print this Article | Send to Colleague

IIAV will be providing volunteers on December 17 to help students navigate their way through Finance Park. Finance Park is a program put on by Junior Achievement every year that allows middle school students in the Greater Richmond area to learn about financial responsibility. Each student is given a life scenario, including a job, salary and family situation. Students then must go out and purchase food, housing, transportation, clothes, healthcare, insurance, etc. All these life expenses must be kept within the budget allotted with their salary.

Come help a kid learn how important it is to be financially stable and the elements that go into living in the real world when it comes to money.

Sign up here to be a volunteer.
