“The best way to build the foundation for a successful financial future is to learn the basics of financial literacy at an early age,” said SDCCU President and CEO Teresa Campbell. “For SDCCU, Biz Kid$ is a key part of serving the next generation of our community. Spring Break is a great time for parents and teachers to introduce kids and teens to financial literacy in fun and interesting ways.”
 
SDCCU launched the program in partnership with the San Diego County Office of Education and the County of San Diego, in support of Live Well San Diego, in 2015. Biz Kid$ is an award-winning, comprehensive financial literacy program focused on teaching students how to use credit wisely and about the importance of saving, budgeting, investing and giving back to their communities. The Biz Kid$ program and episodes are based on national standards for financial literacy and entrepreneurship education and have been mapped to individual state standards.
