Testimonials

“This program is a great opportunity for our local fourth graders who might not otherwise learn the importance of financial literacy and money management. It also allows Hofstra undergraduate and graduate students to give back to the surrounding communities and show the elementary students the importance of a good education.”

  • Associate Dean of the Frank G. Zarb School of Business Gioia Bales

“Capital One Bank is proud to partner with Hofstra University to launch the Money & Me program for local youth on Long Island. At Capital One Bank, we believe that financial literacy and money management skills are crucial building blocks for economic success. We invest in financial literacy programs to set individuals of all ages on the path to a life of fiscal responsibility and economic self-reliance.”
