Meanwhile, Charles Schwab is launching educational programs aimed at helping teens gain financial confidence. YPulse’s education research shows that 39% of today’s high school students wish personal finance was taught in school, and Charles Schwab is attempting to close their financial education gap with two new programs. Moneywise America is a free program that will be offered to schools and nonprofits that don’t have their own financial literacy programs, specifically targeting youth in under-resourced communities and schools, and features a complete financial literacy curriculum backed by employee volunteers at Charles Schwab. The second program launches next year and is aimed at young girls in grades K-12 by supporting the Girl Scouts of the USA (GUSA) with financial literacy and money management skills. (Fast Company)
