Money and Me In-Person

Start the new school year by building smart money habits as a family at Money and Me!  

Money and Me is a fun, engaging way to build financial confidence and skills as a family. Learning about money early helps families make informed choices, plan for the future and achieve long-term financial stability.

What to Expect

  • Activity tables – Local organizations will host interactive stations that make financial literacy exciting and easy to understand.
  • YMCA’s Y on the Fly – The YMCA will bring outdoor games and activities to get everyone moving and playing together.
  • Free backpack – Each child will receive a “passport” that gets stamped as they complete activities. Once all stamps are collected, they’ll earn a backpack.
