• Some youth may not have access to resources that will help them learn about budgeting and repaying their student loan debt. Hosting a workshop that teaches financial literacy may help these youth with their finances, and give them the opportunity to address any concerns they may have.

• It allows youth to become more educated about their finances by teaching them how to earn, spend, and save their money. 

• There may be many youths within the community who want to learn more about budgeting and student loan debt, and you can invite others who want to join as well!

TIPS FOR WHEN & WHERE

• At the local community centre 

• Every Saturday afternoon during the summer
