LIFE endeavors to provide relevant financial education to help individuals improve their financial lives as well as lead them to becoming positive contributors to the American economy. Financial literacy enhances an individual’s financial knowledge, skills, and capacity to use resources and tools so they can get, manage, and use their financial assets to achieve their goals.

​

LIFE actively seeks to host or co-sponsor events primarily in the Metropolitan Washington D.C., Maryland, & Virginia (DMV) area that promote the mission and goals of the organization.
