Simply Youth Institute (SYI) led a financial literacy workshop with a group of 20+ foster youth. Wynter and Fan Jie created a safe space where youth felt comfortable to ask questions about money. SYI taught the youth about credit, bank accounts, budgeting, and financial aid. They used creative and comprehensive ways to discuss some difficult topics. Many of the high school youth said they felt empowered after the workshop. With many of our Seniors heading to college in the fall, SYI could not have come at a better time. They were well prepared, professional, and super impactful. Our students and staff loved SYI. We can’t wait to have them back again in the future!
