On May 1st, SECU sponsored the Reality of Money Event for the 7th graders at NCMS. Students were transformed into an adult for a day, where they were given a career, family, and all the responsibilities of paying bills. Life lessons learned include: budgeting, paying bills, purchasing big ticket items such as a home or car, and managing unexpected financial events such as a flat tire, emergency pet injury, and even a speeding ticket. Thank you to SECU and to all of the volunteers that made this event possible for the students! #groundedandgrowing
