Abstract
This paper describes a student-run financial literacy program for a local middle school which is managed by students in Xavier University's student investment fund. The paper's purpose is to describe a program that could be implemented with minimal resources at many universities. From a hierarchy of learning progression, this program gives university students the opportunity to teach basic business and finance concepts while giving back to the community. The program has the additional benefit of providing financial literacy skills to an underserved, middle school community.
