Youth Financial Literacy

The Seasoned Gives Financial Literacy Program is dedicated to empowering young individuals to actively engage and thrive in a fair and inclusive economy. It recognizes the diverse experiences and challenges they may face, adopting a trauma-informed approach to economic participation.

Understanding the profound impact of family and home environments on a young person's economic foundation, the program is committed to instilling positive financial behaviors before detrimental habits take hold. It acknowledges the significant role of socio-economic status in shaping opportunities and challenges, emphasizing each child's potential to surpass their parents' financial knowledge and security.

To address the lack of exposure to essential financial concepts, particularly among BIPOC children, the Seasoned Gives initiative provides compassionate, trauma-informed financial education. It understands and seeks to change the negative connotation of financial education in at-risk communities.

The Financial Literacy Program stands out by using a mentorship approach, pairing youth with seasoned financial experts for real-world guidance. It goes beyond traditional textbook learning by incorporating storytelling, valuing historical and contemporary economic reflections. Seasoned Gives places a strong emphasis on empathy, inclusivity, and a trauma-informed perspective to pave the way for a brighter financial future for all children, regardless of their background or circumstances.



Moreover, Seasoned Gives recognizes the imperative need for representation of all cultures, as it believes that by doing so, it can inspire marginalized populations and reshape their financial narratives for the better.
