With the economy in shambles and a depression similar to 80 years ago on the horizon, it seems as though history has taught us very little. Financial knowledge will be the only way to avoid future economic downturns, as well as help the current recover. Initially it was difficult getting young people to attend our course, now we are in the unenviable position of having more student requests than our funds can presently supply. Grant money will be critical to our continued success, and succeed we will, we have no other choice, our childrens futures depend on it!!!! Visit us at www.joynerwalkerfoundation.org.

I would love to talk with Ms. Murray.

I even created a web driven program for schools. Ever try to get a school to look at something? They turn their head. Please take a look at www.financialsuccess.orbquest.com and let me know if this is something your school could use or if you would like to incorpoate it into your program. Hello,
