Dear FSS participants and community members,

Money Smart week was April 11th to April 15th. You may have seen my email with a link to their awesome recorded webinars or check out the webinars at: https://www.moneysmartweek.org/. When you get to the page, you do not have to register but just click on the webinar you want to see. Available webinars are: Spend Smart. Eat Smart, Credit: Build and Improve it! , Buying or Refinancing a Home, and Understanding Social Security Benefits. I have included one of their awesome resources about how to plan meals. When you plan meals; you can save money on food, reduce the chance of food spoiling and eat healthier. See page 16. (See page 6 for a great trick to save money too!)
