Financial Literacy

Our Financial Literacy category is focused on educating students, friends, peers, community members, and the world about financial information.   SIFE’s goal is develop the personal financial management skills necessary to achieve financial independence.

 Finances is something that is used by everyone on a daily basis.  There are so many opportunities to improve the knowledge of everyone. 

This year our new project focuses on Finding Your Financial Freedom.  We are going to highlight key areas that will help you in your daily lives.  Some of the key areas include, but are not limited to:

  • Budgeting
  • Managing Credit Cards
  • Student Loans
  • Identity Theft
  • Taxes
  • Investments

 We have many different curriculum modules set up to teach a wide variety of age groups the importance of finances.  Some of our legacy projects include:

  • Saving with SIFE
  • For Your Identity
  • BUDGE – IT
  • Kids Coins
 “SIFE has given me a broader world perspective and heightened my leadership skills.  More importantly, it has made me realize that I, as an individual, can make an immense contribution to society.”
