THE STORY
THE STORY
Striving to Thrive’s founder has been an educator for the last 12 years in a New Jersey inner-city school system. Living near the area where she teaches, she often runs into her students while out and about. She noticed a trend with some of her past students. They were armed with a high school diploma, limited skills, and no plans for their future. As a dedicated educator and parent, she knew she had to do something to help these young adults break the cycle*.
That passion led to the creation of Striving to Thrive, a financial literacy organization that helps youth and young adults learn how to use their assets to change their future. Striving to Thrive's aim is to mitigate the negative effects of socioeconomic status by providing an enriched interactive financial literacy program to aid in the development and education of youth in underserved communities.
*The child poverty rate in New Jersey and parts of Pennsylvania are 15% to 17.9%, per a 2021 US Census Bureau report.
