Bold Starts helps students in grades 4-12 and their families build confidence with money and develop skills for lifelong financial wellness. Through its partnership with Lincoln Financial, TGR Foundation brings real-world money management to life through engaging, age-appropriate learning experiences.
Students explore budgeting, credit and debt, entrepreneurship, investing, consumer protection and emergency preparedness. These experiences help them make informed financial decisions related to college, careers and their future while giving families tools to build stability and plan ahead.
What students explore:
How students participate:
The curriculum is designed for delivery through TGR Learning Lab field trips, after-school programs, clubs, studios and summer camps, with experiences adapted for different age groups. Offerings vary by location and session.
Through TGR Foundation’s AI curriculum partnership with Comcast, students build foundational AI literacy through hands-on experiences that make artificial intelligence easier to understand. They explore how prompts shape responses, how AI recognizes patterns and how to evaluate the reliability of AI-generated content while using these tools responsibly.
Students apply these skills to challenges in healthcare, entrepreneurship, marketing and other fields, using AI to analyze information, develop solutions and create real-world projects.
The goal is to help students become ethical innovators who use AI to address meaningful issues in their communities.
