At the core of Rising Sun Programs
Our Model
We encourage youth participants to understand wealth holistically. True wealth is the balance of one’s physical, mental, emotional and financial well-being. Wealth incorporates intangible elements such as belief systems, values, and responsibilities to self, family, and community.
Our instructional coaches impart these valuable skills using The Wealth Club Building Blocks System as well as the highly effective curriculum developed by Creative Wealth International and National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE). The Wealth Club® program can be customized for students, families, specific group interests and formatted for different time frames.
Increased Knowledge
The Wealth Club® encourages youth to view their lives as a continuous journey. It assists them in the utilization of life skills needed to expand their thinking and awareness, helping them to maximize their potential to become successful, happy, and healthy human beings. The financial literacy component is designed to plant seeds cultivating essential skills in money management, savings and investments. It lays the ground work and a strong foundation toward financial success for youth and young adults. Youth learn that smart money habits are an essential key to creating financial freedom.
Wealth Literacy Principle
"Tell your money where to go instead of wondering where it went"
Life-long Practical Skills
The Wealth Club® explores intrapersonal and interpersonal responsibility, environmental stewardship and tapping into our inner power. When youth are supported with innovative tools and strategies and accelerated learning techniques, they gain both clarity and direction needed for successfully navigating life.
