First Financial volunteers and Limitless Leaders had a blast taking over Junior Achievement of Central Maryland’s JA Finance Park! Located in Halethrope, Maryland, this innovative program gives middle and high school students the chance to practice personal financial planning through an engaging, hands-on budgeting simulation.
During the activity, students explore various storefronts, where they must make smart financial choices related to income, expenses, savings and credit—all while developing their own personal budget!
Beyond volunteering, First Financial proudly sponsors a storefront at the JA Finance Park. The Limitless Leaders, First Financial’s emerging professionals, actively participate in professional development, networking events, and volunteer opportunities, making a positive impact on the community.
As a credit union rooted in education, we’re passionate about supporting the youth in our community beyond the classroom. Partnering with JA has been an incredible opportunity to provide financial education and guidance to help students achieve financial success both now and in the future. Thank you to JA for this fun experience to connect with the students and we look forward to next time!
