MFED works within elementary schools to provide a foundational financial literacy education to 3rd through 5th graders regarding budgeting, saving, credit, investment, stocks, and the banking system. We also provide financial literacy education on the University of Michigan campus to other student groups.
Below is our basic financial literacy presentation we typically use for our youngest audiences. We always pair our elementary presentations with an activity to keep children involved and actively learning!
Our current Education Outreach Committee head is Jack Crandall. If you are a teacher or a community leader and would like to learn more about our educational program, please email us at mfed-eboard@umich.edu.
