The Wall Street Wizards
URBAN FINANCIAL LITERACY PROGRAM • Creating Financially Empowered Individuals and Communities
The Wall Street Wizards is a financial literacy and career education program for urban youth.
About the Program
The Wall Street Wizards Urban Financial Literacy Program and the Wall Street West Financial Literacy Fund offers a mix of classroom education, hands on “real” money management and on-site career exposure to a group of students interested in finance.
The students themselves are referred to as “wizards” in recognition of the financial and business acumen they gain during their participation in the program. Our “wizards” learn about the inner workings of a business and the economy. They analyze stocks and pour over shareholder reports and 10(k)s. But more importantly, they learn how to manage money and fiscal responsibility.
