Looking Ahead
In the year ahead, Wealthy Habits is preparing to reach more than 1,800 students nationwide, with a strong focus on expanding access for students from low- to moderate-income households.
We are advancing several important efforts, including launching the Wealth Builders Fellowship, providing $25,000 in camp scholarships, strengthening community partnerships, and expanding programs that bring practical financial education into more schools and organizations. Each of these efforts is designed to remove barriers and give students the skills and confidence they need to make informed financial decisions.
Making this work possible requires the support of our broader community. Donors help fund access and sustainability, partners help extend our reach, and volunteers bring skills and perspective that strengthen our programs. Together, these contributions allow us to meet students where they are and ensure programs are delivered with care and consistency.
If you are looking for a meaningful way to contribute—whether through financial support, partnership, or sharing your time and expertise—there is a place for you in the work ahead. With collective effort, we can expand access, strengthen impact, and help more students leave our programs better prepared for their financial future.
