Excellence in Financial Education
The Wisconsin Bankers Foundation commends these banks and bankers for carrying out a long-standing industry commitment to improving financial literacy. As a result of the pandemic, many bankers continue to come up with creative ways to advocate for the importance of financial literacy. Donations were made to schools and libraries, audio and video recordings of bankers reading books on financial literacy were produced, and bankers once again let their innovation shine. These participants continue to teach consumers of all ages about the importance of saving and budgeting, how to use credit responsibly, the ins and outs of obtaining a home mortgage or car loan, and many more financial topics. Educating children, teens, and adults about personal finance not only benefits individuals but our communities as a whole.
In addition, many bankers received certificates of recognition for reporting their participation in at least five financial literacy presentations during the year.
Congratulations to all!
