Explore your personal wellness before embarking on a journey of serving others!
Count Me In! With countless definitions of being “fit” and getting “in shape,” we also must consider our financial fitness as a component of our well-being. In 2021-22, we’re focusing on financial fitness as this year’s State Outreach Project, striving to be our best selves by developing our financial literacy skills and challenging others to join us on our journey.
