Marybeth is a consultant at a Stock Brokerage in Boston, MA. She got involved with Citizen Schools as a volunteer with help from her friend David.
Her job was to help the 14-16 year old students learn how to save money for a car and where the best deals to by a car was.
She helped the students work with spreadsheets on how they'll save the money they earn or are given. They class went on field trips to car dealerships and banks for talks about loans.
After her time spent with the students they all had an upper hand in budgeting and saving their money!
