Middle school students who participated in MVS’ money management camp were recognized by “The Money Game” developer for their keen understanding of financial management.

Students used “The Money Game,” an online hybrid of LIFE and Monopoly, to learn how to budget, pay taxes, manage investments and savings, and much more. The main objective of The Money Game is to “provide a stimulating, fun-filled, learning environment where kids can feel safe exploring and learning the various principles, information, and skills needed to create a financially successful and responsible life.”

The camp was led by Kristina Steiger, who guided participants throughout the game. At the end of the week, campers posted finance and game-related questions to “The Money Game’s” Facebook page, which was then answered by the game’s developer and later added to the site’s F.A.Q page.
