Subject: | Financial Literacy Month |
Financial literacy is defined as a set of skills that allows an individual to make informed decisions with all of their financial resources. It is critically important and absolutely vital if one is to achieve personal financial goals. Unfortunately, many young people, fail in the management of their first consumer credit experience, establish bad financial habits and stumble financially through adulthood. It is for this reason that it is so important to increase financial literacy among Pennsylvania's youth. Please consider joining us in recognizing April 2019 as “Financial Literacy Month” in Pennsylvania. |
