Exciting News on Financial Literacy for K-12 Educators and Students: Free Financial Literacy Workshops

I am thrilled to share major advancements in financial literacy for K-12 educators and their students, thanks to the robust support of financial literacy advocates. As someone deeply involved in the evolution of this cause since the late 1990s, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of dedication and support in this field.

Empowering Educators with 403bwise.org

It brings me immense pride to highlight the accomplishments of my long-time friends, Dan Otter and Scott Dauenhauer. Together, we’ve been at the forefront of reforming deficient 403(b) plans within public K-12 school districts for over two decades. Dan’s pioneering initiative, 403bwise.org, which he launched nearly 20 years ago, has been a beacon for providing unprejudiced 403(b) information.

Under the guidance of Tim Ranzetta, co-founder of Next Gen Personal Finance, this platform has recently transformed into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The revamped site, updated thanks to generous donations from Tim, now features interactive tools and numerous involvement opportunities. Visit 403bwise.org

Free Nationwide Financial Workshops

Since 2014, Next Gen Personal Finance, led by Tim Ranzetta, has been offering completely free three-day financial literacy workshops to K-12 teachers across the country. These workshops not only come at no cost but include comprehensive coverage for travel, accommodation, and meals and even provide funding for substitute educators.

This incredible initiative reflects Tim’s dedication to equipping teachers with the necessary skills to educate their students about financial literacy, thereby preparing the next generation for financial success in the adult world.
