Educating Future Financial Experts
The Dollar Investigators is a student-led organization dedicated to teaching personal finance and personal financial literacy to younger students through interactive lessons, school partnerships, and community outreach programs.
Our Original Story
From Club to Movement
The Dollar Investigations started as a personal project stemmed from gap of financial knowledge in the high schools. Most teens graduate without knowing how to open a bank account, budget their paycheck, or invest.
The goal is to provide all young people with essential life skills such as budgeting, investing, credit management, and career planning.
