Are you concerned about debt bunnies? Does your vampire retirement keep you up at night? It might sound like a long shot, but financial entertainment could be the key to enticing individuals to tackle complex money concepts. We’ve all been there―lost in an addicting puzzle or game. Now gamers will be able to sharpen their personal knowledge while learning how to maximize their long-term earnings and avoid the pitfalls of high-interest debt.

The National Council of La Raza (NCLR) and the Doorways to Dreams (D2D) Fund have partnered to improve financial knowledge and confidence among American households. Through an online videogame platform, we are bringing a hybrid of entertainment and education to your computer screen. On August 17, we launched a national Farm Blitz tournament to engage our families in this exciting financial education. Join us!
