The AbbyBank Foundation, Inc. has awarded a $1,500 grant to Junior Achievement of Northeast Wisconsin to support their Finance Park program. Finance Park is Junior Achievement’s flagship program for personal financial planning and career exploration, providing students with the skills to make intelligent financial decisions that last a lifetime.
“Students in Northeast Wisconsin will have access to this essential financial education program. The simulation requires tablets to run the software, and the grant will enable the purchase of the necessary technology, said Rob Diedrich, AVP/Mortgage Loan Officer/Appleton Branch Manager. “Financial education is essential for the success of our community’s youth, and we are proud to contribute to this valuable program.”
