LIFT Youth Foundation
Why our mentorship program?
Our financial literacy mentorship program is designed to provide high school students with the necessary skills to make informed financial decisions. Through this program, high school students will be paired with current college students who will offer a deeper insight into financial literacy, and the business world. This mentorship will not only help high school students develop real world skills, but also provide them with a positive role model to look up to.
