“Spend, Share, Save” Poster Contest

We are excited to share an opportunity to involve students grades K-5 with a little financial education via a fun competition!

 

Spend, Save, Share Jars

The Montana Financial Education Coalition has organized a Poster Contest with the theme “Spending, Saving, Sharing.”  This is a fun activity to share with kids to talk about financial literacy.  The winners win a small prize!  The entry submission deadline is Friday, October 16, 2015.  More information is provided below in the attached documents.

Please share this contest opportunity with those in your community working with students in grades K–5th grade.  Perhaps this would be a great activity to have middle school or high school students visit an elementary classroom and they could do it together as a project!

Thank you for your support of financial literacy!
