Last week, we announced the winners of our First Annual Financial Literacy Month Contest. We received over forty entries, from high school and college personal finance educators throughout the United States, in two categories: “Best Personal Finance Resource” and “Best Personal Finance Activity.”
Each of the five winners in the “Best Resource” category will be receiving $100 from NGPF and were featured in an NGPF blog post. In this category, teachers were asked to describe their favorite personal finance resource and why their students loved it. The winners are:
Each of the “Best Activity” award winners will be receiving $500 from Next Gen Personal Finance and were featured in an NGPF blog post. Their original activities are creative, teach key personal finance skills and provide supports that make them easy for other educators to implement in the classroom.
NGPF would like to thank all the educators who took the time to share their favorite resources and activities with us. We received a large number of excellent entries that demonstrate the commitment of personal finance educators to find and develop engaging curricula for their students.

NGPF Hosting Summit for Passionate Personal Finance Educator-Advocates
Hook Students with Commercials in the Classroom! by Renee Nelson
Andrew comes from a family of educators, and joined Teach for America after graduating from UCLA with a degree in English. During his three years teaching Social Studies, in both rural Arkansas and urban San Francisco, he realized the potential of online tools to amplify the reach and impact of learning for teachers and students. Andrew joined NGPF in 2014, bringing his educational expertise to designing lessons while learning on the job how to manage his own finances (which comes in handy in San Francisco, where the crazy rent means budgets are always tight).
