State Bankers Associations
The ABA Education Foundation works closely with state banking groups and their grassroots network of dedicated banker volunteers to foster financial education among all ages. Some states have special leadership groups whose purpose is to advance financial education through program delivery. Other states support and track bankers' consumer financial education efforts under the Personal Economics Program umbrella. PEP was established in 1977 to promote banker-driven financial literacy efforts. While formal structure is different from state to state, bankers across the country rely on this partnership to maximize their effective delivery of financial education programs.

America's Promise
ABA's partnership with America's Promise builds on the lasting contributions bankers make in their communities on a daily basis. Every day across the country, ABA's Banks of Promise are teaching financial skills, providing resources for young people in after-school programs and working through America's Promise to build a brighter future at the local and national level.

Jump$tart  
The Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy seeks to improve the personal financial literacy of young adults.

Scholastic 
The ABA Education Foundation teamed up with Scholastic, the largest publisher and distributor of children's books, to create "Money in Motion," a program that helps educate teens about financial skills they will need to become financially responsible adults.

Operation HOPE 
Operation HOPE, a national nonprofit self-help organization, seeks to bring economic self-sufficiency and a sustained spirit of revitalization to America's inner city communities. Operation HOPE measures success through the number of conversions of people who use check-cashing outlets into depositors at banks; renters into homeowners; people with dreams into small business owners; and minimum-wage workers in inner-city communities into living wage workers.
