MODEL PROGRAMS OF INSTRUCTION
National Endowment for Financial Education
The National Endowment for Financial Education® (NEFE®) is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) foundation dedicated to helping all Americans acquire the information and gain the skills necessary to take control of their personal finances. NEFE accomplishes its mission primarily by partnering with other concerned organizations to provide financial education to members of the public—in particular, to underserved individuals whose financial education issues are not being addressed by others. These partnerships are an effective means of responding to the needs of many different groups within the general population.

American Bankers Association
It's never too early, or too late, to teach kids the skills they need to budget, save and manage money. Without financial education, young people will learn about money from the school of hard knocks. That's why ABA's Education Foundation created the Teach Children to Save program and why bankers across the country speak to students and community groups year-round about the financial facts of life.
