| Building a Better You | Tanaj, Inc. | The goal of the program is to identify participants who demonstrate a lack of financial knowledge and offer positive support to avoid the pitfalls that can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level. At the “Jumpstart” and “Achievers” Program, the elementary school level and the middle school level, mentors will strive to guide the students by providing them the basic money skills. With those participants in the “Novelist” Program, the high school students, will be provided mentors that serve as developmental roles models for these participants looking for directions. Participant entering the “Ambitionist” and “Turning Point” Program, it will take a proactive effort to assist an adult in redirecting their lives and their spending habits. The organization feels that group activities can service as a powerful inforcer of an accomplishable goal. |
