CITY PAY IT FORWARD
Making a Difference in the Community through Financial Literacy Education
Who We Are
City Pay it Forward is an independent, self-funded charity made up entirely of volunteers
Created by a passionate group of civically-minded business people and parents who decided to do something about an identified gap in the school curriculum in financial literacy education
Seeking to develop partnerships with like-minded groups, institutions and fellow volunteers is core to everything that we do at City Pay it Forward to achieve maximum impact
