From Youth, for Youth. A Worthy Cause is a youth led initiative on Financial Literacy with a mission to spread financial awareness among youth. Young Americans (18-29) owe $1.1 trillion in debt. 73% of millennials lives paycheck to paycheck. Research shows that individuals with financial literacy are more confident in managing their finances, leading to financial self-efficacy. With financial literacy skills, we can build a generation of financially confident youth creating better opportunities for themselves and their communities.
Join us, spread the word, donate or learn! You can help in the mission just by spreading awareness and realizing the importance of financially literate youth.
