The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) will host a webinar in recognition of National Financial Capability Month featuring our latest youth resource: Money Smart News for Kids. FDIC Money Smart News for Kids includes nine chapters, which introduce basic banking terms to children. Each issue builds upon the next and introduces two characters who try out different financial concepts along the way.
The webinar will also feature other FDIC youth resources including, Money Smart for Young People, Money Smart for Young Adults, How Money Smart Are You?, and the Guide to Organizing Reality Fairs.
Financial education is central to FDIC efforts that expand economic inclusion and promote confidence in the banking system. This national webinar is a part of the FDIC Money Smart program, which offers high-quality, non-copyrighted, FREE financial education resources for banks, schools, non-profits, community-based organizations, and other stakeholders to help educate and improve the financial capability of people of all ages and small businesses.
