Finances 101
Each year, Firelands FCU brings Finances 101 to local schools, giving high school juniors a hands-on lesson in real-world budgeting. Through 12 interactive stations, students navigate financial decisions based on a game card that outlines their job, income, marital status, taxes and debt. They’ll face the challenge of budgeting for essentials like housing, transportation, groceries, and childcare—just like in real life!
With the help of 50 volunteers from Firelands FCU and community partners, this program helps students build essential financial skills they’ll carry into adulthood.
