The National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE) is an independent, nonprofit foundation dedicated to providing individual Americans with the knowledge and skills they need to make positive choices and informed decisions concerning their personal finances.
One of the foundation’s key initiatives is to encourage in the nation’s young people an understanding of personal financial planning and the acquisition of sound money management skills. It is NEFE’s firm belief that competence in managing one’s finances results from certain attitudes and behaviors toward money, and that these are more easily instilled if taught early in life. Providing basic financial planning education to young people today will help to create a population of more fiscally responsible and self-reliant adults tomorrow.
