Our Why?
From 1979-2019, income inequality IN THE UNited states grew by 25% which equated to 69% of the Total wealth being owned by the Top 10%. In short, the rich are getting richer while those in the lower and middle classes are becoming poorer. We are changing that through youth-based financial literacy education.
