The program follows a successful pilot serving students in the Portland Public Schools through a partnership with Self Enhancement, Inc., where Intuit and the Suh Family Foundation provided workshops and training to staff to deliver personal finance education to students. Through the program expansion, Intuit is equiping teachers with a financial literacy curriculum and skills-building resources, providing students across the country with a stronger financial foundation.

Across classrooms, there's a growing need to teach personal finance skills. Greater financial literacy tends to translate into higher financial well-being – yet 28% of adults say they've never participated in a financial education program.¹ Those with a stronger understanding of personal finance topics are more likely to spend less than their income, have emergency funds set aside, and take steps to plan for their long-term financial future.²

"Intuit believes every student should have the opportunity to prosper, regardless of zip code. Our partnership with the Suh Family Foundation helps us scale our personal finance programming across Intuit's Prosperity Hub School Districts," said David Zasada, VP Corporate Responsibility at Intuit. "We aim to instill confidence for teachers who are tasked with teaching core finance topics and help build confidence for students as they take this financial education into the real world upon graduation."

Intuit and the Suh Family Foundation are bringing hands-on workshops, resources, and ongoing support to select schools within Intuit's Prosperity Hub School District Program, including Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), Inglewood Unified School District and Compton Unified School District in the LA area, Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) in the San Francisco Bay Area, and Dallas Independent School District (DISD) in Dallas, Texas.
