For over 20 years, CARE has been a national nonprofit dedicated to teaching financial literacy to individuals of all ages across the country. CARE Los Angeles is proud to be one of the most active chapters, bringing this mission directly into schools, community centers, and organizations throughout Southern California.

Our passionate and dedicated volunteer team—made up of over 100 bankruptcy judges, attorneys, and financial professionals—shares real-world knowledge and experiences to help students and families make informed money decisions. Through interactive workshops, we cover essential life skills like:

Budgeting and saving wisely
Understanding and building credit
Protecting against fraud, scams, and identity theft

To date, CARE Los Angeles has reached thousands of individuals with free, practical financial education that empowers them to make smarter choices and build brighter futures.

But the need has never been greater. With the rising cost of living, increasing student debt, and the growing prevalence of financial scams, too many people in our community are left without the tools they need to succeed.

Your support fuels our ability to educate, elevate, and empower the next generation. With your help, we can ensure that more young people—and any individual who can benefit from the confidence and knowledge of learning how to make truly informed financial decisions—have the opportunity to do so.

We believe that financial literacy is a form of financial self-CARE that can last a lifetime.

Donate today to help us continue bringing free financial education to schools, families, and communities across Southern California. Together, we can build brighter financial futures for all.
