A LETTER FROM OUR FOUNDER

Dear Volunteer,

I thought I’d take a moment to reflect and express our thanks to all of the volunteers across the U.S. and Canada who have been weathering the storm on the front lines of education. With your help, RTSWS has had another successful year of lifting the veil on finance with girls. You have been the one who kept your student(s) on course against all odds. Covid has had a major impact on public school student achievement, physical/development issues, enrollment/attendance, mental health, college readiness and enrollment levels in higher education. Graduating students who are college and/or career ready experienced the biggest drops of all. Students were unable to visit college campuses, engagement with high school counselors was reduced and fewer students took the ACT and/or SAT.

Yet, in spite of all of this, together with you, we marched on.

GROWTH

We continued with our programming and actually signifigantly expanded our footprint in 2021.

2020 - 2021 29 high schools across 17 US cities

2021 - 2022 51 high schools across 26 cities in the US and Canada

Oh Canada! Our very first international city - Vancouver. And, we have interest in bringing our programming to an additional 90 cities across the US and overseas in London, Sydney and Singapore.

All of this growth has been organic. ALL OF IT. We haven’t spent a dime on marketing our program to the general public. Our growth is a direct result of word of mouth among each of our female financial professionals. Each and every one of you are to be credited with lifting us up and over our growth goals! Each and every one of you are to be recognized for expanding our network of schools, students, volunteers and sponsors. We had over 1,000 students across the US and Canada register for our Fall 2021 programming. That’s a record.

LOOK AT WHAT WE CAN DO WHEN WE PUT OUR MIND TO IT

We, together, have created something better than a 3D metaverse. We are relating to high school girls (a tough demographic to engage in these matters, according to our west coast digital gurus), across the US and into Canada. These teenage girls, on the verge of adulthood, are learning HOW to have a personal relationship with money and about MEANINGFUL careers in the M of STEM - finance, fintech and economics. We salute all of you in making this dream a reality. Teamwork. Take a bow!

PROGRAM ENHANCEMENTS

This year, too, we saw significant enhancements in our programming. We added the opportunity for some of our students to practice their leadership skills among their peers by becoming RTSWS Student CEO’s. These girls are responsible for assisting in student recruitment, taking note of attendance, food planning, participating in our CEO training sessions and our quarterly Student CEO Summits and for some, Instagram Takeovers, which presented a day in the life of RTSWS students on their high school campuses. We, along with the students, had so much fun with this. To see a few takeovers, click here. (www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17939034142617926/)
