Money Smart Ambassador Program & Train the Trainer

BFCC's one-of-a-kind program puts students in the driver's seat. Through Train the Trainer sessions and team-based learning, high schoolers master personal finance and bring it to life for their peers. Every year, the best presentations compete for prizes at our Financial Education Summit.

Labor of Love

For young mothers at Lincoln Park High School working toward their diplomas, BFCC shows up. We deliver financial education, dress for success workshops, interview prep, and a luncheon with community leaders — meeting our most at-risk students exactly where they are.
