Bank Staff Teaches Kids About Finances

REDLANDS>> Wells Fargo employees have taught Boys & Girls Club members about financial responsibility throughout the past two months. The employees volunteered to hold workshops in October and earlier this month at Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Redlands-Riverside’s sites around the Inland Empire. Wells Fargo uses a curriculum that teaches youth the basics of responsible money management, including how to create a budget, save money and spending on needs versus wants. “Learning the basics of budgeting, saving and money management in an engaging way can help peak children’s curiosity and set them on a course for life-long knowledge and ultimately financial success,” said Jack Olree, Wells Fargo’s vice president of community development for the Inland Empire. “Teaching young people financial literacy is a great honor for the Wells Fargo team because we believe it is never too early for children to become familiar with the foundational tools that will help them make smart fiscal decisions as they get older.” Financial literacy is a standard part of club programming. “We’re grateful for partners like Wells Fargo who act on the importance of teaching youth about money,” said Club Vice President Mark Davis. At the presentations, club members won prizes for answering questions and received worksheets to take home.
