Dodgers Love LA Financial Litercy Workshop w/ Mookie & Brianna Betts
Workshop on Financial Literacy: Dodgers’ Passion for Los Angeles
Why is Financial Literacy Important for Young People?
Financial literacy is a crucial skill for young people to develop as they transition into adulthood. Understanding concepts such as budgeting, saving, investing, and managing debt can set the foundation for a secure financial future.
By imparting financial education to the younger generation, the Dodgers and Bank of America seek to empower them and help them make informed decisions and avoid common pitfalls. From basic money management to more advanced investment principles, equipping young people with financial knowledge is an investment in their future success.
Mookie Betts on the Value of the Financial Literacy Workshop
“When it comes to the kids, I think just understanding the value of a dollar, how to balance a checkbook, how to just do normal things and I think giving them tools for actual life and not necessarily just solving problems (in the classroom from a book). I think that’s very important.”
The Dodgers’ dedication to LA extends beyond the baseball field, as they strive to empower the youth and contribute to their success.
