Students & school groups
Middle and high school students who compete, answer real money questions on stage, and leave with vocabulary they can use the same week.
Sponsor financial education
Put your brand behind students learning real money skills.
WealthWiseGuys teaches money in Philadelphia — in classrooms, community rooms, and online. Sponsorship pays for the seats, materials, and events that make that free for the students who need it most.
Featured program — WealthWiseGuys × Money Talks Edu
Million Dollar Status
Million Dollar Status is a financial-literacy game show created by Ms. Crystal Evans, founder of Money Talks Edu, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit. Students compete in front of judges and a live audience answering real questions about money — earning, saving, credit, and building something that lasts. It turns a subject most schools rush through into a room full of people paying attention.
Money Talks Edu created and owns the Million Dollar Status program. WealthWiseGuys supports it as a Philadelphia education partner — bringing curriculum, facilitation, and our own youth and adult programming alongside it. Sponsoring here backs both sides of that work.

Who this serves
The people in the room.
Sponsorship reaches students and families directly, not an abstract audience.
Families & neighborhoods
Parents and caregivers in the room hear the same lessons their students do, so money conversations continue at the kitchen table.
Community & youth organizations
Nonprofits, after-school programs, and faith groups that need engaging financial education they do not have to build themselves.
