Bring Money Path to your Community
Money Path Atlantic is an educational initiative that partners with community organizations across Nova Scotia to expand their in-house programming with financial literacy education. All our programs are based on national curriculum standards set by Prosper Canada.
How to become a Money Path Trail Guide:
Future Trail Guides participate in an online course that meets once a week for five weeks. The course covers our ten trailheads, enhancing future Trail Guides’ knowledge about money in Canada. We assist future Trail Guides in facilitating this information within their communities and provide resources and teaching aids to support their efforts.
What Money Path Brings to Your Team:
Your team will have the skills and knowledge to effectively help your community with money education. You will get our Trail Guide tool kit that includes course material, lesson plans, booklets, hand-outs, teaching aids and more. You will be part of the Money Path Network full of other Trail Guides and community partners all sharing their own insights and resources. Money Path Atlantic will keep you up to date with new and emerging information, online tools and connections around financial literacy in Canada.
Our Ten Trailheads:
Financial literacy means having the skills, knowledge, and confidence to make informed decision with our money. It helps us pay our bills on time, manage debt, save for life’s big milestones, protect us from frauds and scams, and understand the benefits of timely tax filing. Financially literate individuals make better financial decisions, and the earlier we learn these skills, the more proficient we become. That’s why these are our ten trailheads for money education in community.
