Helping improve financial literacy

At HCU, we believe it's never too young to start learning about money. Having a good understanding of saving, spending, and budgeting helps set our youth up for success down the road. Heartland provides many different resources for schools including lesson plans, classroom demonstrations, and even an interactive financial literacy fair, Bite of Reality. Let us help you make sure your students experience financial well-being.

Lesson Plans

We have several different financial literacy lessons complete with lesson plans, handouts, and videos to help make financial education fun and simple.
