Money Smart Week
Sunday, April 16th, 2017 -- 6:15 AM
-Money Smart Week began as a coordinated effort of the Money Smart Advisory Council, a diverse group of more than 40 Chicago-area organizations working together to promote personal financial literacy.The result was Money Smart Week, six days of focused presentations by community groups, financial institutions, government agencies, educational organizations, and financial experts, all designed to help consumers learn to better manage their personal finances. This event has continued to grow and spread across the county from urban settings to rural outreach. Last year’s annual report listed 5,400 events across 48 states.
Money Smart Week 2017 in Clark County is a partnership between UW-Extension, Abbotsford Public Library and Abby Bank. There will be several presentations on April 24th, 28th and 29th. Also, all week long, the Abbotsford Public Library will be highlighting popular financial books as well as Jenny, the librarian, will be demonstrating origami using dollar bills.
