28 Students From Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School Create First Generation Investors Club
PITTSBURGH - eMusicWire -- JKS Financial, a financial planning and wealth management firm affiliated with Northwestern Mutual, is helping high school students learn finance skills necessary for real-world investing. By sponsoring a First Generation Investors ("FGI") chapter at Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School, 28 students will learn the power of the financial markets. FGI is a non-profit organization that works to provide high school students in underserved communities with the knowledge and skills to thrive in the investment economy.
Following 8 lesson courses about investing and portfolio management under trained student volunteers from Princeton University, students were granted a total of $100 to invest after delivering their capstone presentations that outlined their portfolio allocation. The allowance provided to the 28 Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School students gives them the opportunity to grow their portfolios at their own discretion thanks to a monetary donation from JKS Financial.
"At JKS Financial, we value students learning about investing at an early age," said Dan Jenkins, Wealth Management Advisor and Managing Partner at JKS Financial. "We are proud to support First Generation Investors in providing supplemental education to students interested in establishing a strong foundation for their financial future. With this program, we believe these students are getting a head start on success."
