"Philadelphia Financial Scholars originated when the FS Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Philadelphia-based asset management firm FS Investments, partnered with the University of Pennsylvania's Netter Center for Community Partnerships to create a financial literacy program for high school students. Since that time, the program has expanded significantly and now includes in-class financial literacy education, after-school entrepreneurship training, a summer business accelerator program at Wharton, and a nights-and-weekends curriculum for families, caregivers and teachers. The program is currently operating in 15 schools, both public and charter, and has reached more than 1,500 students."
