In recognition of the Back-to-School season, the FDIC invites you to a national program focused on how educators are using the free Guide to Organizing Reality Fairs to support the financial education needs of youth, young adults, and students.
This program will include:
- An overview of the free FDIC’s Guide to Organizing Reality Fairs
- A town hall conversation with educators using the Guide to Organizing Reality Fairs
Financial institutions and other organizations can also explore how using these financial education tools may support their own community activities.
For nearly 25 years, the FDIC Money Smart program has provided free, non-copyrighted, high-quality resources for banks, schools, nonprofits, and community organizations to empower people with the knowledge and tools needed to make informed financial decisions. The program includes instructor-led curricula for all age groups and small businesses, as well as How Money Smart Are You?—14 self-paced games on everyday financial topics.
