Why It Matters
Business Isn't Just for Businesspeople
From paying rent to choosing a career, understanding how money works affects every part of your life. Yet most schools never teach it. Students graduate knowing calculus but not how to read a paycheck. They can analyze literature but don't understand interest rates. This gap in financial education disproportionately affects students without financial backgrounds, perpetuating economic inequality. We're here to bridge that gap with the financial education that should be in every classroom.
