Volunteers Teach Personal Finance Fundamentals
to Youth on "Teach Children to Save Day"
MEMPHIS,
Tenn., May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- First Horizon
Corporation (NYSE: FHN or "First Horizon") is proud to
announce its participation in the American Bankers Association
(ABA) Foundation's "Teach Children to Save Day," directly providing
financial literacy skills to more than 7,000 students. In April,
First Horizon associates conducted financial literacy classes for
youth across the bank's footprint by imparting essential money
management skills and promoting the value of saving from an early
age.
"Teach Children to Save Day" is an annual event held as a part
of Financial Literacy Month to educate young people about the
importance of saving money and making wise financial decisions. The
program teaches children to set financial goals, save money and
make responsible spending choices. First Horizon is an active
partner of the ABA Foundation's program and participates annually.
This significant effort highlights the bank's commitment to making
a positive impact through financial education.
"As a part of our community investment strategy, we place
significant emphasis on financial literacy skills that can
transform lives and communities," says Bryan Jordan, Chairman, President, and CEO of
First Horizon. "I am proud of our associates' commitment to
provide these vital programs that promote financial education and
equip individuals to establish strong foundations, attain economic
dignity and secure their financial futures."
In addition to participating in "Teach Children to Save Day",
First Horizon has supported numerous organizations and partners
through financial literacy initiatives. Last month, the bank
launched its "Grants for Good" campaign, providing $1.6 million to nonprofit organizations dedicated
to strengthening financial well-being in communities within its
footprint.
