We’ll Come to You!

Are you interested in having us speak at your organization? We have done “Lunch and Learn” presentations for employees of local businesses, classes for students at all levels, and in-house workshops with other community development organizations. Our current presentations cover topics in Financial Literacy like Preparing for Emergencies, Fraud Awareness, How to Handle Credit Cards, Demystifying Credit Scores, and Building Financial Freedom. We can accommodate a small number of students in our Winooski Office, or we can come to you. Let’s work together to make the presentation that works best for you and your team!
