Ever say to yourself, why didn't they teach us this in school? Nobody teaches us how to manage our money in school or college. Even for those who immigrate to this country, no one comes knocking on our door looking to teach us about how money works here in the United States. Financial issues are not often discussed, and financial products are not always explained. Most people have trouble balancing their own checkbook and reading a financial statement. We use credit cards every day and don't always understand the hidden charges. We buy insurance policies, yet never bother to read them. We pay others to do our taxes for us when we could do it ourselves, only if someone would teach us. We contribute to our 401k/403b yet know nothing about risk tolerance. We deposit our hard-earned paychecks into bank accounts that pay us almost nothing in interest, without even understanding inflation.
It's possible that we don't know what we don't know. We believe that everyone should have access to quality financial education, regardless of their background or current financial situation. That is why the Worcester Financial Education Center provides FREE (that's right, FREE!) financial education workshops, both in-person and via Zoom, in English & Spanish!. No catch, no cost. These are not your typical bank-sponsored non-profit classes, these are real financial classes presented by real licensed financial professionals using actual financial books. You can take one or two workshops, or all of the workshops, the choice is yours! We’re positive that you and your family will benefit from our workshops and financial professionals. Your friends and co-workers will too! It’s just part of our mission and commitment to helping communities break the cycles of poverty so they can change their family's financial future. The future is not in your bank's hands, the government's hands, or your employer's hands: the future is in YOUR hands!
