Budgeting Module

Budgeting isn’t about restrictions, it’s about control. Many young people struggle with money because they’ve never learned how to manage it effectively. Our Budgeting Module teaches students how to create a budget, balance needs vs. wants, and plan for real-life expenses like moving out or buying a car. With hands-on activities and interactive games, students gain the skills to make confident financial decisions
