Outcome: Initial Outcome

Each year Madison McAlmond, FCS Agent, has the opportunity to work with the FRSKY Angel Tree program to provide educational workshops. This year the workshop provided was Money Habitudes. This program combines the focus of money habits and attitudes with a fun card game highlighting individual spending habits. The goal is to take a closer look at what you spend your money on to evaluate if that lines up best with their current money goals. 11 participants worked through their money habitudes this year. 81% of the participants felt like their habitudes accurately described them. 100% made it their goal to be more aware of where they are spending their money so they can make better financial decisions.
