A message from the
Executive Director
The need for financial literacy education is not new.
At Cents Ability, we believe that financial literacy isn’t just
an option—it’s a revolution waiting to happen. Too many young people are stepping into adulthood unprepared for the financial challenges ahead. From understanding how
to manage credit, avoiding the trap of debt, to building wealth for the future, we’re here to equip teens with the tools and knowledge they need to not just survive, but thrive
in today’s complex economy.
In a world where the rules of money are constantly shifting, we’re dedicated to giving young people the financial education they deserve, right now. This isn’t about teaching you to budget pennies—this is about teaching you to build empires, make money work for you, and step into your financial future with confidence.
We’re not here to sugarcoat the truth: building wealth takes work, it takes strategy, and it takes access to the right knowledge. But when you understand the game, you can play to win. Join us in this movement—let’s break the cycle, let’s level up, and let’s change the future, one financial decision
at a time. The next generation of wealth builders is here.
Are you ready to rise?
Sincerely,
Roy Paul
Executive Director
