April is celebrated as the Financial Literacy Month. This started back in 2004, when the U.S. Congress designated April as National Financial Literacy Month. Over the years, many federal and state agencies, credit unions, schools, nonprofit organizations, and socially conscious businesses started participating in this initiative to raise awareness about the importance of financial literacy education in the United States.

Financial Literacy incorporates the knowledge and the competence to manage personal and household finances to reach your individual financial goals. It is essential in understanding how to save, earn, borrow, invest, and grow your money. Whether you are in college, starting your first job, business owner, home maker, successful professional, or close to retirement, it is never too late to learn about managing and improving your financial well-being.
