The Delaware Financial Literacy Institute and Center for Economic Education & Entrepreneurship jointly received a 2014 Excellence in Financial Literacy Education (EIFLE) award for Bank At School.
The program is a free weekly banking program offered to elementary, middle and high school students at more than eighty schools statewide. The national EIFLE awards recognize innovation, dedication and commitment of individuals and organizations to financial literacy education worldwide.
Bank At School won for “Children’s Education Program of the Year, Saving and Investing.” “While the need for financial literacy has never been greater, the efforts being made in support of this noble cause by this year’s EIFLE winners have been an encouragement to us all,” said John Linfield, executive director, Institute for Financial Literacy. “I would like to congratulate our EIFLE winners for their distinguished accomplishments and service in working to bring successful financial literacy education to the communities they serve.”
