••• 10.04.18 Jr. Economic Club’s Day on Bay Presented by @interac • The Jr. Economic Club was created to inspire Canadian youth to become financially literate. It is more important than ever that we educate & equip our next generation of leaders with the skills & habits to be digitally & financially literate. • Our program is about empowering young people to be the best they can be. Each year high school students from across Ontario join us for "A Day on Bay"—a high profile field trip gives students a first-hand experience of Toronto's Financial District, while simultaneously teaching them the fundamentals of finance. Students will learn about making smart financial decisions, budgeting & financial services with a focus on digital financial literacy. Our high energy & interactive day is guaranteed to teach students practical money skills & digital financial literacy & create memories that will last a life time. • #DayOnBay
