HBCU Financial Literacy Bowl

In celebration of our 25th Anniversary as an organization and our 15th Annual Conference, SFEPD is launching a new event for 2023. Initially open to all SFEPD Ambassador programs, teams from each participating HBCU compete in a two-phased competition to see who is the most financially savvy. The first round of the competition was held virtually, and teams competed in a speed round of financial literacy questions.

Following an intense hour of competition in the first round, Tuskegee University came in first, followed by Hampton University and Southern University and A&M College. These teams and their oversight professor will join us for a live competition as part of the conference events. Teams will compete for bragging rights and, of course, cash prizes.

Generously sponsored by our friends at The National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE), the SFEPD HBCU Financial Literacy Bowl is sure to be a favorite of students and conference attendees alike. The final round of the competition will take place live on Tuesday, October 24 at the 15th Annual Financial Literacy Leadership Conference.

Professional Development Week Recap

SFEPD Student Ambassadors took Professional Development Week by storm with a variety of campus activities the week of September 26-28. From presentations to a nationwide social media campaign to tabling on campus, students spread the SFEPD message of financial literacy and getting ready for their first job to their peers.

Testimonial

"The students and instructors enjoyed the wealth of information/knowledge Marcus presented. After each presentation, Marcus was able to meet with a few of our students on a one-on-one basis to give them more insight on their particular questions in order to make them feel empowered as it relates to financial literacy. I would like to thank you and SFEPD as a whole for creating these opportunities for our college students."

Osaffo E. James, Executive Director of Student Enrichment, North Carolina Central University
