Our Impact by the numbers
- Financial education provided to 600,000+ Americans, including 500,000 college students
- Financial education and professional development programs have been offered at 90 colleges and universities

Our surveys and data show that our unique model of offering financial education and professional development changes lives and improves financial literacy and behaviors, career readiness, professional success, and financial wellbeing.
In early 2025, an independent research firm fielded a customized survey and hosted focus groups to evaluate the effectiveness of our financial education programs. The preliminary results of nearly 500 survey respondents indicate that all learners saw an overall improvement in their knowledge, financial behaviors, and financial well-being.
