NGPF Curriculum is FREE, and will always be FREE.

We believe that every student should take a one-semester personal finance course before graduating from high school. The life skills that personal finance education provides are too important to leave to budgetary whims or fickle funding sources.

For this reason, NGPF is funded through an endowment created by the co-founder and receives no funding from any outside sources, including financial institutions. All NGPF curriculum, professional development, and advocacy support is FREE and will always be FREE.
