What People Say

"Wanted to create an income stream and learn how to build credit. WEDC provides a unique way of teaching financial literacy through the Hawaiian culture, values, and stories. Having access to one on one coaching is priceless."

"Kēhau gave awesome insight as to how to budget & get a visual of how iʻm spending & how to use the numbers to budget & save for the future. I was a mess. I was given the tools to track where I was and now I know. Mahalo Kēhau!"

"WEDC Financial Lo'i workshops have helped me gain new knowledge about various aspects of my finances. My 1:1 coaching was not only educational but fulfilling. I highly recommend these workshops to all and parents should encourage their young adults to join in the financial education."
