💰 Week 3 is Here! 💰 This week, From the Block to the Boardroom is diving into one of life’s most important skills: financial literacy. Our facilitator, Mrs. Diamond Curtis, will be leading an interactive session centered around this week’s theme: “Money Is a Tool, Not a Mystery.” Our youth will learn: 💳 The difference between checking and savings accounts. 📈 What credit is and how it works. 💵 How interest can help—or hurt—their financial future. 📊 How to build and manage a simple monthly budget. As we remind our students: “If you don’t understand money, someone else controls it.” Our mission is to equip the next generation with the knowledge and confidence to make smart financial decisions, build wealth, and create opportunities for themselves and their families. We’re excited to continue investing in our youth—one lesson at a time! 💙 From the Block to the Boardroom Building Leaders. Creating Opportunities.
