Englewood, NJ, May 11th, 2012- Employees of NVE Bank recently gave a savings lesson to over 250 first, second and third grade students in Closter, Leonia and Bergenfield, NJ, as part of the American Bankers Association Education Foundation’s 16th Annual Teach Children to Save Program.

“Studies show that children aren’t learning the skills they need to make smart financial decisions as adults,” said Robert Rey, President of NVE Bank.  “Communities and schools teach life skills, but we don’t spend enough time teaching financial skills.”

The presentations included activities about the concept of saving, interest and determining needs vs. wants.  Since the American Bankers Association Education Foundation’s National Teach Children to Save Day began in 1997, thousands of bankers have taught money skills to more than one million students.
