InCharge Education Foundation Partners with the Hawaii Council on Economic Education

September 20, 2004. ICEF is partnering with the HCEE to develop a customized financial literacy/economic education K-12 curriculum (N Wai Puapua i) that meet the cultural background of Native Hawaiians. The initial phase is a pilot study, which will then be followed by a state-wide implementation that meets the learning needs of all of Hawaii's school students, including those who are currently underserved. InCharge hopes to apply what it learns from this project to the development of curricula that meet other underserved populations.
