Welcome to SHOP For Wealth, formerly known as the Student Homeownership Opportunity Program!!! SHOP For Wealth is a two-hour seminar that provide students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities with the opportunity to learn about financial literacy and ways to begin building wealth immediately.

Our presentation includes information concerning credit and debt, financial fitness, the three keys to wealth, and how to get started now.

The principal objective of the program is to educate young people about the importance of: managing money smartly; establishing good credit habits; recognizing the potential hazards of easy credit; and building wealth through homeownership. While visiting universities throughout the country and speaking to students of all ages, races, and socio-economic backgrounds, CBCF has realized that, though attendees are excited about the opportunity to begin building wealth through homeownership, too many are already plagued by poor fiscal habits, which has resulted in declining credit scores. Thus, the SHOP Program has shifted its emphasis to heavily focus on moving away from debt and towards general financial preparation, in homeownership and beyond.
