LifeSmarts engages middle and high school students in real-world learning and prepares them for adulthood. LifeSmarts is free and provides innovative education focusing on personal finances, consumer rights, technology, the environment, and health and safety.
The lessons learned in LifeSmarts go beyond the classroom. Students bring knowledge home and share lessons learned with their family and community. Alumni share stories of avoiding fraud and identity theft, teaching their parents debt management, and making career choices thanks to their involvement in the program. LifeSmarts provides the education teens need to change their lives and improve their circumstances.
In April, LifeSmarts is hosting the 31st National LifeSmarts Championship in Chicago, IL. More than 300 students from across the country will come together for four days of spirited competition and camaraderie, showcasing their consumer smarts and competing for scholarships and prizes.
LifeSmarts provides travel stipends to student teams to recognize their achievements and ensure they can participate in this exciting, life-changing event—regardless of financial barriers.
