Get REAL Financial Reality Fair

Winter is just around the corner, but these temps got me feeling like it’s already here… Stay warm by volunteering at our next Get REAL Financial Reality Fair!

A Get REAL Financial Reality Fair provides students with an opportunity to:
 
·         Explore career paths and consider a job they may desire in the future.
·         Work with an income and learn how to budget for things like a home, car, utilities
       insurance, food, clothing, entertainment, and more.
·         Interact with local business people who lend a touch of reality as they sell to students.
·         Meet with a financial advisor who will bring the focus back to savings and thrift
        practices, review their budgets and provide financial advice for their future.
 
There will be multiple tables in different categories; your role will be to manage one of the tables and offer students a variety of ways to spend their money.  There is also the role of the financial advisor, their role will be to review the budgets with students and bring the focus back to savings and thrift practices.
 
We will provide you with all of the information you will need to work with the students prior to the event.
