Are you a teen interested in learning about financial literacy and how to grow your money by investing in the stock market one day? Then join our Future Fortune Club and learn from investment professionals how to invest now for your own future fortune! Teens who participate will have the opportunity to win a college scholarship ranging from $1,000 to $5,000!
The club will meet once a month. At our November club meeting, teens will pick three individual stocks and track their performance through May 2026. The teen with the stock average that performs the best by May will win a $5,000 scholarship, the second highest performing stock average will win a $2,500 scholarship, and the third highest performing stock average will win a $1,000 scholarship.
For ages 14 to 18 years only. Teens must attend ⅔ of meetings to be eligible for a scholarship. Program host, Matt Chester, will guide scholarship winners through the process of creating a 529 bank account and the scholarship money will be deposited directly into the 529 account.
Pizza will be provided at each meeting!
Program hosted by Matthew Chester and Jon Budish. Email rnicholson@cwmars.org with questions.
