We’re excited to share that United Scarborough Initiative recently hosted the very first session of our Future Funders program — an engaging and empowering financial literacy initiative designed specifically for children and youth.

Aimed at students ages 7 to 14, Future Funders introduces young learners to the essential building blocks of financial understanding. Through interactive lessons and age-appropriate activities, participants explore key topics such as:

• The importance of saving and budgeting
• Understanding needs vs. wants
• How money is earned and managed
• The basics of banking and interest
• Responsible spending habits
• Introduction to entrepreneurship and goal-setting

Our mission with Future Funders is to equip the next generation with the knowledge and confidence they need to make smart financial decisions — both now and in the future. This foundational program is part of USI’s commitment to holistic youth development, preparing students not just academically or athletically, but also for real-world success.

Stay tuned for upcoming sessions and new resources as we continue to grow this initiative and empower our community’s future leaders!
