A Great Reminder of Why We Do What We Do!

Thanks to Aaron Greberman, educator at Bodine High School for International Affairs, who shared this at the recent NGPF FinCamp in Philadelphia: 
 
Here is Facebook message I recently received from a former student. Comments like these are inspiring and serve as fuel to keep learning more so I can offer more to my students. Thanks again for making NGPF such a worthwhile and engaging program.
 
Here's the message from my former student:
 
Dear Mr. Greberman, 
 
I'm not sure if you remember me, but I was a senior last year and you were my Personal Finance teacher 8th period. On August 31st I started my first day at Temple University, and while my peers were spending the extra money from their loans and refund checks, I remembered the lessons you taught and put some of the money away in a CD. I have all the books I need as well as some extra spending money and the knowledge to keep my head above water in terms of finances. I would like to thank you for all the energy and extra information that you put into the lessons each day. Keep up the good work! 
 
Thanks again, Ezequiel Amparo
