Provide financial literacy to the next generation
Since 2020, DCU Next Generation has worked with volunteers on Catchafire on 45 projects, creating over $233,000 in nonprofit value.
Volunteers have provided project support in areas like tech systems, finance, and marketing. DCU Next Generation cultivates healthy financial literacy environments for underserved communities through early education, entrepreneurship opportunities, and engaged advocacy.
“Catchafire is a blessing for my organization. Prior to Catchafire, it was really frustrating trying to work on multiple projects simply because the demand was not high in my region. Being able to collaborate with volunteers that shared the same desire (or understood the importance) of financial literacy really helped develop initiatives that would have otherwise never seen the light of day.”
