Our Mission

According to the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), almost a quarter of U.S. teens lack basic financial literacy knowledge. This is a pressing issue. As teenagers grow up, they start to make important financial decisions that heavily impact their lives. Without the proper knowledge, making a wrong decision is easy and can be incredibly harmful.

That's where our mission comes in. We want to end this cycle of inadequate knowledge and education that hampers growth and success. That's our one goal - to teach the next generation financial skills so that no one gets left behind.

Who Are We?
We're a team from Issaquah High School in Washington. As students ourselves, we have realized how many of our peers don't have personal finance skills. Schools focus on core skills such as math, science, and english; these subjects are extremely important, but in the process, financial life skills get left behind. In our mission to change this perspective, we started Literally Finance.
