3rd Annual Financial Literacy Reality Fair

Alexis I. du Pont High School and Franklin Mint Credit Union partnered for the 3rd Annual Financial Literacy Reality Fair, equipping students with essential budgeting skills for real-life success! 

This interactive experience gave senior students unique "life situations" with family size, credit score, and salary details. Using this information, they navigated 16 financial stations, making decisions on housing, transportation, utilities, entertainment, health insurance, and more.

The event concluded with personalized sessions with Franklin Mint financial advisors, who provided students with tailored guidance for their financial futures. This hands-on event is an excellent opportunity to prepare our students for the next steps after graduation!

Thank you to Franklin Mint Credit Union and our remarkable Red Clay staff for making this meaningful experience possible.
