This week, we are excited to host Courntey Pettway, CEO and co-founder of KidVestors (kidvestors.co). KidVestors is a pioneering social impact enterprise providing equitable financial education. Courtney transitioned from working in corporate America to focusing on financial literacy, driven by her own experiences and a commitment to addressing educational disparities. At KidVestors, fueled by her mission to bridge the wealth gap, she is working to create innovative and engaging financial learning tools for the next generation.
We loved hearing about how Courtney leverages financial literacy to create more equitable opportunities, including her strategies for increasing global financial literacy and the success stories of students whose lives have been transformed. We also dive into Courtney's approach to making finance both accessible and enjoyable, her partnership model with banks and schools, and her commitment to empowering young people from underserved communities. We wish Courtney the best in her future endeavors!
Thank you for listening to this week’s episode, and be sure to tune into our next episode highlighting a new guest in the field!
