  • "The Save it Forward initiative was designed to promote financial health and wellness to middle and high school students in the community. Thanks to FoolProof's unique messaging, it does just that. An added benefit, we realized, was the education it provides to our very own students.

    Whether addressing economic inequality in the community, cultivating impactful relationships between college mentors and younger students in the community, or enhancing the leadership skills of our student mentors, the Save it Forward program does it all."
