South Carolina

Working together, we can improve youth financial literacy in South Carolina.

If you're concerned about students learning how to handle money successfully, you've come to the right place!

The Jump$tart South Carolina Coalition is a non-profit organization of individuals representing business, government and education, joined to improve the personal financial literacy of South Carolina's youth. South Carolina Jump$tart Coalition's objectives are to:

• Enhance and improve financial literacy levels of South Carolina's K-12 educators and students;
• Promote and develop public awareness of the importance of financial literacy; and
• Nurture personal financial literacy within the state through grassroots initiative.

We're celebrating Financial Literacy Month!

Partners, send us your events for sharing with SC Jump$tart Coalition members.
