“We know we need to inspire and educate these kids and we have a knowledge of how to go about that at some level, but we don't have the knowledge EverFi has in how to use technology and how kids learn nowadays and how you can use that ramification and use an online tool in the classroom… We could go out and build some kits or a binder that has this information in it or a brochure, but this is how kids learn nowadays and that is why we want to be on the front edge of that, not the back edge.”
-Matt Schatzle – Executive Director, ASME Foundation
“We know we need to inspire and educate these kids. We have the knowledge of how to go about that at some level, but we don’t have the knowledge EverFi has in how students learn today and how to use technology as an effective tool in the classroom. We could go out and build some kits, binders or brochures that have this information, but we would not be able to really connect with students. We do not want to stay on the back edge of education, we want to be on the front edge with EverFi.”
- Matt Schatzle, Executive Director, ASME Foundation
“We knew that we wanted to begin to evolve our brand in a fairly significant way and the EverFi platform seemed like one of the biggest, tangible things that you could do with relatively little effort on our part, to really send a signal that we're going to do something different, that we were going to be a little different and we were going to do things differently, so from that perspective, it was an important part, I would say not so much externally alone than it is an internal signal as well, that you know we're going to be a little more focused on meeting the needs of our customers, a more diverse group of customers and provide more value in the relationship by being more knowledgeable and helping them access financial services.”
-Geoffrey Thomas – Managing Director, TCF Bank
“We wanted to evolve our brand in a significant way and the EverFi platform is one of the biggest, most tangible ways to do so with little effort on our part. With the EverFi platform we send a signal that we are going to do something different and be something different internally as a company and externally to meet the needs of our customers. By helping students access financial services, we are able to reach a more diverse group of customers and provide value in our relationship with the community.”

“I can't think of a better partner, quite frankly, to work with and then the content itself, the content really speaks for itself, sells itself, and if you're serious about making a difference in the community, then when you see kids use it and become engaged quickly and thoroughly, you know you're going to do some good with it, so the combination of the EverFi team that just does an amazing amount of work on our behalf together with the content, it's kind of unbelievable.”

“I think there are just tremendous possibilities, one is that EverFi brings to the table scale - reaching more kids, making technology accessible - and combining that with technology that is effective and starting to change behaviors and how kids learn and how that translates into long term behaviors, long term decision making, I mean I really think that is the next horizon.”
-Heidi Crapol – VP Community Relations, Foundation Board, Genworth

“Our partnership with EverFi has been terrific on a number of levels because first it's given us the ability to go throughout the state and provide this digital literacy curriculum to eight and ninth graders where it is really key. What it also does for is it allows us to invest in an area where we are so passionate about which is technology… When we look at technology, we look at our business and we know that the future is, will our kids be able to understand how to use the internet, what the social responsibility that comes along with that, as well as STEM education - Science, Technology, Education, Math. Are they getting exposure to those fields, because as a technology company, we need a pipeline of kids if we're going to succeed as a company and frankly if our nation is going to succeed with the innovations of the future. So put that all together and it's a great partnership and we've been thrilled to do it.”

Research
“As you know, we're in the higher education community and it was really important for us to get better information, more research about the attitudes and behaviors- financial attitudes and behaviors of college students, and so this opportunity with EverFi came about, it was like, "we've really got to get on this and sponsor this" so it's sort of been an awesome opportunity for us, we get national exposure for being the study sponsor, I get to work collaboratively with EverFi researchers on, you know, the sort of design and execution of the survey, we kind of work together in terms of the reporting and how we're going to present that.”
-Mary Johnson, Higher One – Director, Financial Literacy and Student Aid Policy
“As a member of the higher education community it is important for us to have the best research on the financial attitudes and behaviors of college students, so we jumped at the opportunity to sponsor the ‘Money Matters on Campus’ report for EverFi. This partnership has been an awesome opportunity for Higher One to work collaboratively with EverFi researchers on the design and execution of the survey, as well as the chance to receive national exposure as the sponsor of such an important study.”
