Join NowGen, a program of the Center for Jewish Philanthropy of Greater Phoenix, and Kesher, the parent organization of Pardes Jewish Day School, in partnership with MidFirst Bank, for an engaging workshop on teaching children the fundamentals of finance.
If kids are old enough to ask for a toy, they’re old enough to start learning financial lessons that will last a lifetime. Everyday experiences, like trips to the grocery store, visits to the bank, or planning a vacation, can offer age-appropriate teachable moments.
This workshop is open to all local parents, regardless of school affiliation. This workshop is presented by MidFirst Bank. Registration link coming soon.
