We're gearing up for another exciting Fall tour! Starting September 14 in Georgia and wrapping up November 13 in Florida, our team will be crisscrossing the East Coast and Southeast to bring the importance of financial literacy to students.


Where We're Headed


This fall, Funding the Future will visit:


  • Georgia (tour kickoff!)

  • South Carolina

  • Delaware

  • Connecticut

  • New York

  • New Jersey

  • Tennessee

  • Mississippi — a multi-school show at Jackson State University

  • Florida (tour finale!), including two multi-school shows:

    • A show in Pasco County

    • A show at the University of Florida, in partnership with the Stavros Center, for Hillsborough County students


Beyond the Stage


Our team isn't just performing this fall — we're also connecting with educators and community leaders who make financial literacy education possible:


  • Gooding will take part in the NC Bankers Association's Emerging Leaders Conference in Raleigh, connecting with the next generation of banking leadership.

  • Carter will participate in our third teacher workshop with the Stavros Center at the University of South Florida in Tampa, equipping educators with tools to bring financial literacy into their classrooms.


Thank You to Our Sponsors


None of this would be possible without the generous support of our sponsors:


  • Georgia Secretary of State's Securities Division

  • First Horizon

  • Raymond James Bank


We're so grateful for partners who share our commitment to building a financially confident next generation.

A WyoGives Update


One more thank-you before we hit the road: thanks to your incredible generosity, our WyoGives fundraiser closed with a final total of $72,537 — including the Hughes Charitable Foundation Incentive Pool — well above our expectations! Thank you again to everyone who helped make the day such a success.
