Julie Ingram, who helped establish the partnership with Pretty Girls with Brains, expressed her excitement about the outcome of the event. She stated that she was highly impressed with the attendance and the level of participation shown by parents, students, and community volunteers who helped make the program successful.
Bettye Bell, founder of Pretty Girls with Brains, shared her enthusiasm about the collaboration and the impact it had on local families.
“We are excited about continuing our partnership and bringing more financial literacy opportunities to the community,” Bell said. “It is important that children begin learning financial responsibility at an early age while parents are also provided with tools and resources to support those lessons at home.”
Organizers hope the success of the event will lead to additional workshops and family-centered financial literacy activities throughout the year. The program reflects a growing commitment to equipping young people and families with the knowledge and confidence needed to make informed financial decisions for the future.
