We are running two sessions of Invest in Girls in the Spring of 2021. Each session will be limited to 25 high school aged girls from Michigan. The fundamentals of finance will be taught and career opportunities in the field of finance will be explored. Each week you will learn about a different personal finance topic and work with a female leader in the field of finance. Learn your money personality, all about taxes and how they will affect your paystub, budgeting, banking, credit and debit cards, credit scores, and investing.

This session will run on Wednesdays from 4-5pm April 14 - May 26. Girls who attend at least 6 of the 7 sessions will receive a $150 stipend. If you attend all 7 sessions you will receive a bonus $50.
