Abstract
A partnership between the Emery Collegiate Institute (Toronto, Ontario) and York University's Calumet and Stong Colleges established a team of student volunteers from York and Emery that brought an idea into reality. A peer-led financial wellness project follows three characters as they age from 18 to 30 and learn about how their individual money attitudes influence their financial behaviours.
Funded by York-TD Community Engagement Centre, this project aims to reduce the financial anxiety experienced by students, parents, and teachers, and aid in a successful post-secondary transition.
