Mission Statement:

 

The mission of the FCA foundation is twofold. First, we will educate and empower the youth with the right knowledge and tools to make wise financial decisions. Children are an important ingredient of our future and we are very passionate about teaching them financial literacy. With this in mind, we will be hosting several events geared towards helping children of all ages to gain a better understanding of and learning about financial literacy.  

                                                                                                     

 Secondly, we will provide high school students from the state of Florida with financial assistance for college through scholarships.  The scholarships can be applied towards books or tuition.  Students will be evaluated based on transcripts and level of involvement within the community.
