FINANCIAL LITERACY


The Museum of American Finance (MoAF) is the only finance museum in the United States. It offers not only a rich variety of historical artifacts, but most importantly, MoAF offers diversified programs that encourage and educate people about finance and topics related to their lives. Financial literacy is of vital importance in people's lives, and MoAF is a leader in nurturing and strengthening financial education.

“Candidly, our nation is financially illiterate. Many individuals are just financially not prepared to go forward and make intelligent decision with respect to money. Why this is so important is because it’s going to touch them everyday of their lives, and yet very little preparation is done in that capacity.”

David Cowen, President and CEO of MoAF

 

“I’ve never really done anything for a museum before, and I thought the best part was talking to the administrators, like David Cowen. It humanized the museum because you never really think about the people who run it. It was a really good learning experience and definitely worthwhile!”
