Piper Jaffray to Participate in National Teach Children to Save
Day
MINNEAPOLIS, April 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Piper Jaffray & Co. will
participate in National Teach Children to Save Day on Tuesday, April 26. This
is the fifth year Piper Jaffray has participated in the program that was
originally developed by the American Bankers Association Education Foundation
in 1997.
Piper Jaffray has developed its own fun and interactive curriculum to present
to children in fourth, fifth and sixth grades. The program was developed to
introduce the important concepts of saving and investing money at an early age.
Nearly 60 Piper Jaffray employees will visit 55 elementary schools across the
United States in conjunction with National Teach Children to Save Day.
"For more than a century, Piper Jaffray employees have been integrally involved
in the communities in which we live and work," said Andrew Duff, chairman and
chief executive officer of Piper Jaffray. "Teaching children how to save,
spend and share their money is a great way for us to help our kids achieve a
solid financial footing in the future and make their own community
contributions."
During the presentation, Piper Jaffray employees will introduce financial
basics by using a brainteaser as well as introducing the concepts of stocks and
bonds through interactive exercises. Finally, the children receive a Moneybox,
which has three sections: saving, spending and sharing. "The Moneyboxes are a
great tool to show children there is more than just spending money, that they
can also use their money to help others in their community," said Duff.
