What is a Chapter?
Chapters are high school clubs where students come together during the school day to build entrepreneurial, leadership, and public speaking skills through hands-on activities and workshops. After school, chapter members apply what they’ve learned by teaching financial literacy to younger students, helping to close the knowledge gap in their communities. Chapters empower teens to become confident leaders while making a real impact through peer mentorship and community service.
