BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:

Teaching students financial literacy in our Southwest Tallahassee neighborhood.

That's the goal of Loyalty Credit Union as the weekend approaches.

On Saturday, Loyalty will host a free financial education event.

Community Development Director, Terrance Barber, shares how this initiative will help out our youth in the long run.

"Financial education has to be one the most foundational components in order to empower communities, neighbors and entire cities. Why not start with the youth?" said Barber.

The credit union's financial education event will be held September 21st at the Leroy Collins Library. The session starts at 2:30 pm. Parents are also encouraged to attend.
