Impact

We are all about making a positive impact on students' lives through financial education. Check out the graphs below to see how we've done the past few fiscal years.

The graph above shows the number of contacts we've made through digital campaigns or activities, Money Mentors referrals, or live webinars for fiscal years 2020 - 2023. Our fiscal years start July 1 and run through June 30th of the following calendar year.

We send bi-weekly enewsletters to students, employees, and parents who subscribe. The graph above shows the number of subscribers we have for each group as of January 2024. We scrub these subscription lists of expired email addresses at least once each fiscal year.

We've been facilitating the University of Illinois Financial Literacy Digital Badges Program since fall 2014. The graph above shows quizzes in the Badges Courses in Moodle completed during fiscal year 2023.

*The Borrow Badge course does not include quizzes for our semiannual campaigns: Understand Your Refund and Know What You Owe. We have separated those participation metrics to include on another graph. Because this course includes campaign-based, targeted educational interventions, this increases enrollment and exposure to all of the other quizzes in the course. This is why the completed quizzes are so much more for the Borrow course compared to other courses in the Financial Literacy Digital Badges Program.

The above graph shows completed quizzes for fiscal year 2023 for the Understand Your Refund and Know What You Owe campaigns. These results include unique individual responses for campaigns run in the fall and spring semesters.
