Financial literacy is a serious subject. Corporations and colleges are beginning to recognize how crucial it is for students and young adults to learn basic financial and economic principles––for themselves and society. In 2012, volunteers from Vanguard launched My Classroom Economy, a free financial education program for students in grades K-12. In five years, Vanguard has reached 600,000 students in all 50 states and Canada. In this session, Vanguard’s Community Stewardship leaders and a cross-functional team of My Classroom Economy volunteers will share how a passionate, creative, and diverse team can develop a corporate citizenship program that creates social value by tapping employees’ professional skills. Attendees will learn: Where My Classroom Economy fits into Vanguard’s community impact and giving back strategy. How Vanguard implemented My Classroom Economy by leveraging employee volunteers from a wide range of functions within the company—from IT to HR to marketing and more. How to make the most of existing resources within your company to develop or improve corporate citizenship programs. Speakers: Carra Cote-Ackah, Executive Director, Community Stewardship, Vanguard Kyra Scalea, Manager, Community Stewardship, Vanguard Nate Prosser, HR Senior Manager, Vanguard Liz Krueger, HR Manager, Vanguard Colton Fisher, Head of Institutional Investment Marketing, Vanguard
