Circle Internet Financial, a global fintech company responsible for issuing USDC, has partnered with Junior Achievement of Northern California to provide high school students in the Bay Area with a comprehensive financial literacy curriculum focused on Bitcoin, blockchain technology, and NFTs. The program aims to equip students with a deep understanding of decentralized technology and digital assets, enabling them to actively contribute to the development of future financial services.

Junior Achievement of Northern California will oversee the Circle Scholar award program, which will grant twenty scholarships, each valued at $5,000, to students who successfully complete the Digital Financial Literacy Curriculum from 2023 to 2025. The launch of this financial literacy program comes at a time when the web3 industry is experiencing a decline in funding, but Circle and Junior Achievement's commitment to educating students about the potential of blockchain technology remains unwavering.
