Here's the thing: students do want to discuss financial topics. 💵 A recent survey by Intuit found that 85% of students said they try to discuss financial topics with their parents, but parents typically aren't comfortable having those types of conversations with their kids. This may be because these parents report that they don't feel financially savvy themselves, with 88% of parents believing financial education should be taught in schools and support its inclusion in school curricula.

With new and improved content aligned with current health standards, increased technical accessibility, and new interactive elements for increased student engagement, this critical education will undoubtedly make a big impact in classrooms. 💻 ✨Learn more about the different considerations for whole-person health and how your sponsorship of this course can make a difference in the lives of students in the communities you serve. ➡️ https://blkb.co/3zTsaY7

As of summer 2024, there are currently 26 states that guarantee a personal finance course in high school. 👏 This shows that policymakers, educators, and parents are increasingly recognizing the importance of financial education and continue to advocate for students to learn these skills in school. As part of EVERFI’s mission to prepare students for their financial future, we are committed to scaling financial education in a way that meets the unique needs of teachers and schools no matter where they are. To reflect our commitment, we're launching a new Collection of our financial literacy courses so teachers, schools, and districts can easily review how these courses address relevant standards with a downloadable guide. As part of that, we've recently revamped our EVERFI: Financial Literacy for High School course to more comprehensively meet national and state financial education standards.

There is still more work to do. 💰 Most recently, California has become the 26th U.S. state to mandate financial education, with high school students soon being required to take a financial literacy course to graduate. 🎓   Twenty-four states still do not mandate financial education and requiring students to take a one-semester course on personal finance is unlikely to achieve lasting results.   This is why we believe it should be taught at an earlier age, and on a continuum, to have a lasting impact. ✨ Read the full article from Fox News TV to see our data on financial confidence: lnkd.in/g42YX73E

Access to history, access to the world 🌐 Last month, EVERFI from Blackbaud celebrated Juneteenth with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America in Galveston, Texas with a special launch event focused on access to essential history and lifelong skills. Thanks to the National Football League (NFL) and Microsoft, each middle and high school student was gifted a brand new Microsoft Surface so they could learn with the interactive EVERFI courses. 💻 Students immediately used their devices to access the 306-Black History lessons to hear untold stories of black entrepreneurs, leaders, and change-makers who influenced the world as we know it. 🌟 As the BBBS Coordinator Cora Moore stated, opportunities like these allow students to have access to their history and the tools to achieve their dreams! #Community #CommunityImpact #SocialImpact #NFLFoundation
