SkyPoint Federal Credit Union, a member-owned financial institution, and Banzai, an award-winning financial education content platform, have announced a partnership to teach financial literacy across area high schools and community colleges. The first program was launched early this year at Gaithersburg High School with 80 students.
SkyPoint will sponsor the use of the Banzai platform to guide Gaithersburg High School’s financial literacy program.
The curriculum will include topics ranging from healthy spending and saving habits, how to build credit, buying your first car, and how to establish long-term wealth. Banzai content builds a foundation of practical knowledge and provides students with the tools to create a sound financial future. SkyPoint and Banzai are planning to expand similar programs with Montgomery College in March, the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) in April, and Frederick Community College within the next six months to a year. SkyPoint is a Community Development Financial Institution and a designated Juntos Avanzamos credit union.
