Financial Literacy

Real tools. Real advice. All from people who care.

At Gather FCU, financial literacy is the foundation for brighter futures. We’re committed to empowering our members and community with practical knowledge and hands-on support to help you manage, save, and grow your money confidently.

From classroom workshops to community events, we provide meaningful financial guidance for every stage of life.

What We Offer

Whether you're just starting out or looking to strengthen your financial habits, we provide support that’s easy to understand and apply.

• Reality Fair: Real Life, Real Lessons
  Each year, we partner with local high schools to host our Reality Fair—an interactive experience that teaches students how to manage money, budget, and prepare for life’s financial demands. By facing real-life budgeting challenges, students build essential skills that last a lifetime and gain confidence to step into adulthood ready for what’s next.
• School Workshops
  When invited, we visit schools to teach practical lessons on savings, budgeting, credit scores, and the difference between needs and wants—helping young learners build strong financial foundations.
• Budget Tools
  We provide budget sheets and worksheets that help students and adults visualize income, expenses, and spending habits to take control of their finances.
• Financial Guidance
  Our team is always ready to talk through important topics—from saving strategies to credit counseling—to support healthy financial habits for all ages.
• Community Support
  Schools and organizations interested in financial literacy resources can reach out to us. We’re happy to help when we can.

Financial confidence starts with the right support. Whether it’s a classroom visit, a budget tool, or a Reality Fair experience, Gather is here to help our community make smart money moves for life.
