MoneyIsland: Learning Financial Literacy
An Educational Program from Valley Federal Credit Union
Make Money Make Sense
When kids play MoneyIsland, they enter a virtual world that not only
makes learning fun, but also tracks and encourages their progress. As they
go on quests to fantastic destinations like the Eiffel Tower and Atlantis,
they learn real-life principles of financial responsibility.
The Need for Knowledge
Currently, 45% of high school seniors say they are not ready to manage
their money. Even among adults, financial literacy is at an all-time low in
the United States. Our standard curriculum, for youths from 8 to 14, is designed to change
that.
MoneyIsland provides invaluable life lessons that better prepare future generations. Aligned with national
standards published by the Jump$tart Coalition® for Personal Financial Literacy, the MoneyIsland curriculum
builds skills in three basic areas: Saving & Spending, Earning & Investing, and Using Credit Wisely.
