Financial Literacy Month is a nationwide, collaborative endeavor marked by a variety of activities and events across the country to promote the importance of financial literacy and the need for effective financial education. Financial Literacy Month was started as Youth Financial Literacy Day by the National Endowment for Financial Education. NEFE brought it to the Jump$tart Coalition to promote among its more than 100 partners. They expanded it to simply Financial Literacy Month. The theme for 2024 is “Inform, Inspire, Ignite” which seeks to spread the message that financial empowerment begins with learning, and teachers start the spark of learning that pays dividends.
You can inform, inspire and ignite financial education and financial literacy for yourself and others by checking out these books which are available at the NPC Library:
