"Preparing today's youth for tomorrow's financial success."

While America is one of the wealthiest societies, we also have a shockingly high percentage of adults who lack financial literacy and money common sense. Because our education system does not teach critical financial skills in school and they are often not taught at home, wealth and financial security continues to concentrate with those "in the know," while an increasing percentage of Americans struggle with our complex financial world.  For those lacking solid personal financial fundamentals, the American Dream is an elusive fantasy. And for the financially illiterate, it turns into an American nightmare. Its eye opening when teens understand withholding taxes on their paycheck, how much a phone or other consumer product really costs when you only pay minimum payments on a credit card, investing, and much more. Know Your Dough gives youth the tools to be smart consumers, investors, and in control of their financial goals.
Financial Literacy helps local youth in several ways: 
  • Allows individuals to make educated financial choices
  • Promotes discussion of financial issues
  • Helps youth plan for the future
  • Promotes long-term well-being
  • Helps protect against predatory practices
  • Increases savings behavior
  • Reduces maxed-out credit card
  • Increases timely debt payments
The overall well being of a community is stronger when its citizens (today's youth) are financially capable. Donate today to support our community and its well being. With donations, Know Your Dough can reach more audiences and bring the best experience to the youth of the region.
