Each enrichEd grant award ranges between $500 and $2,500 and can be used to implement a financial literacy curriculum, according to the credit union.
“For example, the grant could be used for implementing financial literacy curriculums such as teaching students how to create a budget, build a savings account and manage unexpected expenses, organize living expenses, and more. It could even be used to create a sustainable funding source for classroom activities that engage students in financial literacy exercises,” Nadine Buerger, executive director of ARNIA Foundation, U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union’s nonprofit and privately-held charitable foundation, said in a news release.
