Financial Learning
Kingston Community Credit Union believes it is essential to have the skills and knowledge to make informed and effective financial decisions. We are committed to growing the financial well-being of our community and providing opportunities that will help develop strong money management skills. We believe financial education is a lifelong learning process and are delighted to share our knowledge and tools with our members and our community.
Check out our great library of learning resources below. These resources are great for independent learning, for any age, and can also be applied to learning in a group.
Who said financial education has to be all serious and boring?
We invite you to join our main character Jen on her journey to understanding everything there is to know about money. And we are doing it in a way that entertains while educating—this is the key to It’s a Money Thing’s success. The financial concepts presented are sophisticated, while the simple animated approach perfectly appeals to people of all ages.
Using animation allows us to explain complex topics simply and in a memorable way while leaving a smile on your face. We also have supporting materials which we share on social media or use during group presentations.
