Common Cents
Mission Statement
Common Cents seeks to mend the financial literacy gap seen across the U.S.
According to the Federal Reserve, in a basic financial literacy test comprising of three
questions, only about a third of adults could answer all three questions. College
students scored similar scores.
This doesn't have to be this way.
Innovative
We find innovative ways to make learning about personal finance appealing for a wide audience of young adults.
Interesting
Personal finance is often thought to be boring. We believe learning about personal finance should be fun, interactive, and engaging.
Inclusive
Regardless of your career, personal finance is important to everyone. We're committed to expanding the accessibility of financial education.
