Mrs Midwest International 2014 - My Grandmother taught me -

To whom much is given, much will be required (Luke 12:48) If we are blessed with talents, wealth, knowledge, time and the like, it is expected that we use these well to glorify God and benefit others. My mother’s experience of becoming homeless at the age of 67 provided me with a gift of knowledge that I am using to Champion the cause to break the generational cycle of financial illiteracy! By making "Money Smart Kids" and Raising up a Generation of Savers 1 Generation at a time!

Championing the cause to break the generational cylce of financial illiteracy!

Hello! I am blessed to be an International Spokesperson for the Savings Fund a Non-Profit created by the National Financial Educators Council which provides financial education, resources and tools to over 22 countries. With their support I am bringing my Big Yellow Umbrella Campaign across the Globe to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America!

As a Financial Literacy Volunteer Teacher for the Boys and Girls Club of America it is my honor to donate and teach my Money Smart Kid Tool Box to the children in the Clubs knowing that when you Invest in a Child. You Inspire a Future!

Follow the Yellow Umbrella! I made a visit to a 3rd Grade Class today to do a lesson from my Money Smart Toolbox Kit for Money Smart Week! Every child received a savings lesson book about Curious George! I had such a great time teaching the kids and we all made a curious george savings bank to take home

Why making our kids money smart is critical!

56% of Americans have NO Savings and 38 Million People have NO retirement savings and the next generation their children are not being raised to save. We have to break this cycle and MAKE financial education a top priority for our children. Just as we believe Education is the right of every child so do I believe Financial Education should be. NO matter if a child lives in poverty or wealth financial education should not be with held! What good is an education that leads to a job if we do not have good money skills and end up harming ourselves financially. Parents be a Champion for your child by teaching them good money skills. If you need help contact me my Big Yellow Umbrella is big enough for everyone!
