Community Spotlight
Celebrating student achievements and building stronger financial literacy connections across our learning community
Outstanding Student Achievements
After completing our personal budgeting workshop series last fall, Marlowe successfully organized a community financial wellness event that brought together over 150 residents from the greater Rimouski area. Her initiative sparked conversations about debt management and saving strategies that continue today through monthly meetups.
Viktor's dedication to understanding investment principles led him to create educational content that helps other students grasp complex market concepts. His peer-to-peer teaching approach has become a model for our upcoming mentorship program launching this summer.
These success stories remind us why we focus on practical financial education. When students apply what they learn and share that knowledge with others, it creates ripple effects throughout our community. We're seeing more people feel confident about making informed financial decisions.

The workshops here focus on real situations you actually face. Instead of abstract theories, we worked through budgeting challenges and learned practical tools for tracking expenses. It's changed how I approach my finances completely.

What impressed me most was the community aspect. Learning alongside others facing similar financial questions made everything more relatable. The discussions we had were just as valuable as the structured lessons.
