Nearly 63% of young people age 18 to 34 said that “thinking about my personal finances can make me feel anxious.” Another 78% feel they lack the information they need to repay their college loans. **
We help college students improve their financial literacy and money mindsets to avoid common pitfalls, decrease financial anxiety, and increase the possibilities for their day-to-day and long-term financial success.
Through strategic partnerships and culturally-responsive workshops and events, our approach to financial education is tailored to address the unique challenges and social pressures today's college students face.
I struggled in college because I struggled with money. It's hard to focus on the books when you can barely eat or sleep between classes and multiple jobs.
Supporting Know Money means another young person doesn't have to face that mounting daily anxiety. They can move smarter, enjoy their college experience, and truly prepare for a fruitful life after graduation.
