DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation Inc. (DMFLF), a 501(c)(3) organization is working to close the financial literacy gap in our country and build stronger, financially literate communities -- one student, one classroom, one school at a time.

We have developed a student-centered financial literacy curriculum that is standards-based and provides 60 hours for high school students.
