JA Finance Park Mobile immersive financial literacy experience where 8th grade students become “adults for the day”. Each student is assigned a career, salary, family situation and financial obligations.
Students will…
• Create and manage a realistic budget
• Make decisions about housing, transportation, insurance, food, and entertainment
• Balance wants vs. needs while planning for unexpected costs
• Experience the impact of financial choices on their long-term goals
What Will You Do as a Volunteer?
- Volunteers serve as mentors and guides during the simulation. You’ll help students think through their choices and support them as they navigate real-world financial scenarios.
