College Students

Educational Institutions

Financial literacy is a critical life skill, and we believe that every student should have access to this essential knowledge. At The R.A.R.E. Foundation, we are committed to ensuring that students not only learn how to manage their finances but also how to protect their identities in an increasingly digital world. By equipping young people with these skills early on, we set them on a path to financial independence and security, empowering them to make informed decisions that will benefit them for a lifetime.

The student debt crisis is a growing concern, with average student loan debt at graduation tripling over the last two decades. In 1993-94, about half of bachelor’s degree recipients graduated with debt averaging a little more than $10,000. Today, more than two-thirds of college graduates leave school with an average debt of around $35,000. This burden of excessive debt often delays major life events such as buying a home, getting married, or starting a family. Additionally, it influences career choices, leading many graduates to take jobs outside their field or work multiple jobs just to manage their debt.

Moreover, the recent cyber attack on the New York City Department of Education has exposed hundreds of thousands of students and former students to identity theft risks. With cases like these becoming more common, it is more important than ever to equip students with the knowledge and tools to protect their financial and personal information.
