Stack facilitates a long term solution for youth in financial literacy and money management, making finance easily-understandable without all the complex jargon.
Our unique, hands-on approach provides young people with practical experience in gaining knowledge and skills that form a solid foundation for their financial futures.
We use media and technology to foster a collaborative and engaging learning experience along with our principle of five ‘stackable skills’ to propel youth toward financial security.
The liberating effect of becoming financially savvy is truly incredible. Without any additional monetary input, young adults are able to clear the hurdle of financial stress and regain control of their life, all just by being smarter with their stacks.
