In October, more than 50 students from Crews Middle School in Lawrenceville celebrated and received a certificate for their completion of the Green Financial Scholars Program.
The program is an interactive online platform that builds the foundation for making good financial decisions in such areas as credit and debt, saving and investing, planning and money management, income and careers, financial responsibility and decision making, and insurance and risk management.
Mr. Hames steps outside the box to educate his students in business concepts through a variety of activities and events.

One event, modeled after the TV show Shark Tank, had several local business leaders listening to entrepreneurial students present their business ideas. Mr. Green and some of his staff donated their time to participate in the Shark Tank event, as well as prior career days.
Mr. Hames approached Green Financial looking for a possible sponsorship of the financial literacy program, knowing of Mr. Green’s passion for serving his community and for providing financial education.
