MountainOne Enhances Financial Literacy Among Youth Through Storybook Program

MountainOne's innovative approach to financial education was recently showcased at the Hull Lifesaving Museum's Summer Adventure program, where children were treated to a story time featuring 'Something to Save.' This event, part of MountainOne's Storybook Program, aims to teach young readers about saving money and setting goals through engaging narratives and interactive activities. The program, which includes titles like 'How to Climb a Mountain' and 'Something to Save,' is designed to foster early literacy and financial awareness among children.

The event was made even more memorable with a visit from Mo the Spokesgoat, a character that helps make financial concepts accessible and fun for kids. Community Banking Officers Devon Stone and Meghan Dunphy led the session, emphasizing the importance of introducing financial concepts early in a child's life. 'These events are a great way to introduce kids to the basics of saving in a way that is engaging and relatable,' said Stone. The program's unique combination of storytelling and interactive experiences underscores MountainOne's commitment to supporting community education and providing valuable learning opportunities for families.
