The Day at JA Finance Park

"Who will I become?"

Upon entering the event, each student will be greeted and placed with a mentor at a table. They will be given a unique "life situation" - a personal profile with the details of their adult life like the one here.

Students then learn about budgeting areas, make spending choice, and discover how to spend within their means.
