Financial Literacy

That's why, at Family Trust, we are dedicated to spreading financial literacy to our members and to the community beyond. By offering free, personalized counseling sessions and resources--both in-person and remotely--we ensure that everyone can develop the skills they need to manage their money responsibly. We strive to create a knowledgeable and confident culture of financial literacy that extends far beyond our walls. We want individuals and households in our community to feel empowered--no matter the size of their income. It's all part of our ongoing commitment to helping people achieve financial success.

We are dedicated to giving back.

One way we do that is by helping people understand how to make their money work for them through...

• Free workshops
• Free financial counseling for Family Trust members
• Sponsoring financial education courses in our local high schools
• Monthly email articles 
• Online resources on various topics such as budgeting and credit monitoring.

We also extend our reach beyond our membership by partnering with impactful local organizations that work to promote financial literacy, too. Through these initiatives and collaborative efforts, we are proud to help our members and our community progress toward financial success with knowledge and resources that will help them now and for generations to come.

We're helping thousands each year.
