As a parent, one of your biggest concerns is likely helping your child succeed—both academically and financially. While you may already be planning for your child’s future college expenses, the earlier you start, the easier it will be. If you want your child to learn the essential skills of money management and scholarship opportunities that can help reduce future debt, then don’t miss this incredible, free opportunity!

Join us for a virtual workshop led by Marianne Ragins, a $400,000 scholarship winner, as she shares her proven strategies on February 6, 2025, from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM ET. This session is designed for students of all ages, from middle schoolers to high school seniors, and their parents. Whether your child is just starting to think about college or is already in high school, this workshop is packed with valuable information that will set them up for long-term success.

What Will Your Child Learn?

Marianne Ragins, author of Winning Scholarships for College and Senior Year Head Start, has been helping students navigate the world of scholarships, money management, and financial literacy for years. Her personal success story, which includes earning over $417,000 in scholarships, is a testament to the power of early financial education.

Here’s just a taste of what Marianne will cover during the workshop:

  • How to start saving and managing money at any age
  • The power of scholarships – yes, you can earn scholarships as young as 6 years old to help pay for college!
  • Budgeting basics: Understanding needs vs. wants
  • Smart saving and investing strategies: Learn how to build wealth and avoid common financial pitfalls
  • Navigating college costs early: Tips on how to plan ahead for one of the biggest expenses your child will face.

Parents, this workshop is not just for your students. Marianne encourages you to attend with your child so you can learn together and begin implementing these simple yet powerful strategies at home.

Why This Workshop is a Game-Changer for Your Family

Marianne’s approach to financial management is grounded in simple savings and investment strategies that she has used since she was a teen. By following her advice, Marianne successfully avoided the burden of student loan debt and large credit card balances—both of which can drain a family’s financial resources.

Her $400,000+ in scholarships for college helped her graduate without financial worry, and her daughter is now the recipient of over $476,000 in college scholarship offers (all merit based). These are the kinds of opportunities your child can also take advantage of!

And it’s not just about savings. It’s about equipping your child with the mindset and tools they need to take control of their financial future. A young man who attended Marianne’s workshops over the past few years recently received one of the scholarships Marianne offers, along with an additional $12,000 in outside scholarships and 2 full-ride college offers!

This is the kind of life-changing opportunity you don’t want to miss.
