Receiver of Taxes Charles Berman Sponsors Financial Literacy Seminar
 
North Hempstead, NY– As part of his ongoing efforts to provide financial services and information to Town residents, Receiver of Taxes Charles Berman announced that his office is sponsoring a pair of Financial Literacy seminars for those living in North Hempstead.

The first free, in-depth seminar is scheduled for Tuesday, April 9 at the Hillside Public Library, located at 155 Lakeville Road in New Hyde Park. It runs from 6:45 pm to 8:45 pm.

A second seminar is scheduled for Thursday, April 11, from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm at the Westbury Public Library, located at 445 Jefferson Road in Westbury.

The informative tutorial, titled “Financial Literacy for Kids and their Families”, is designed to provide children “the basic skills needed to help families lay the foundation for a healthy financial future”, said Berman. “It also provides kids with basic money management skills they will need as they approach young adulthood.” Parents and grandparents are encouraged to join their kids for the discussions.

The program is made possible through a partnership of the Receiver of Taxes and Henry Montag of Financial Forums, Inc., a provider of educational workshops and conferences for professional and consumer organizations.

Topics of discussion will include: Money and Values within Your Family, Living within Your Means, Understanding the Importance of Good Credit, Basic Saving and Investment Strategies, Student Loan Borrowing Strategies and Pitfalls, as well as various other money management topics.

This seminar is purely informational. There will be no cost associated with it, nor will there be any products pitched or sold. It is strictly an opportunity for parents and their children to come together to educate themselves on the crucial topic of financial literacy.
