Sent out another round of Purrsonal Finance Society stickers this Morning. Thank you so much to our patreon supporters who make all the community work that OMD does paw-sible. This year we have taught finance workshops to 302 people experiencing homelessness, escaping unsafe living situations, serving in AmeriCorps, aging out of foster care, or living with HIV. The average age of our workshop participants is 19 years old. Thank you to all our community partners working day in and day out to meet the needs of these folks. And thanks to our patrons for making it possible for me to help provide financial literacy training and cat filled financial books for these orgs at no cost to them. 💕💕 it means a lot.
