For Educators
Make A Difference–Wisconsin offers the opportunity to connect your high school students to volunteers from the community with a diversity of experience and expertise. The Make A Difference–Wisconsin curriculum exposes youth to basic information on managing finances and making sensible decisions about money, providing lessons that will benefit them for years to come.
Volunteers are screened and trained to engage students in a classroom environment and on delivery of the Make A Difference–Wisconsin curriculum.
The Make A Difference–Wisconsin financial literacy program consists of 3 seminars:
Bank Your Future
Learning about budgeting, saving, and living within your means.
Check It Out
How to open and maintain a checking account, and the benefits of using checking
accounts.
To Your Credit
Establishing and using credit in a responsible manner.
Delivery is flexible and Make A Difference–Wisconsin works to ensure that scheduling meets your needs and fits into your lesson plans. Volunteers are paired with classes based on availability, strengths, and preferences (both educator and volunteer) so that the highest quality, most beneficial program is delivered.
Connect with us to help give teens the tools they need to avoid financial distress and to enjoy prosperity as they enter adulthood.
