First Horizon Corporation (NYSE: FHN) has reached a new milestone in its efforts to promote financial literacy among children. This year, the company educated a record 8,900 students through the American Bankers Association (ABA) Foundation’s Teach Children to Save program.
The initiative, now in its 15th year of partnership with First Horizon, provides hands-on lessons in saving, budgeting, and responsible spending. Bank associates volunteered at schools and youth organizations across the company’s 12-state footprint to deliver the program.
Bridging the Financial Literacy Gap
Beth Ardoin, Chief Communications Officer at First Horizon, highlighted the program’s impact: “For 15 years, we’ve worked with the ABA Foundation to teach kids essential money skills that aren’t always covered in school. This year, 440 of our associates participated—engaging 100% of our markets. By starting early, we’re helping young people build confidence and lifelong financial habits.”
A Commitment to Financial Education
Teach Children to Save is one of many financial literacy programs supported by First Horizon. The company aims to empower individuals and families with the knowledge to make smart financial decisions.
