Making a Difference with Money & ME – One Young Person at a Time!

On August 27, 2026, I had the pleasure of conducting a Money & ME Train the Trainer workshop at CasaKids in Roswell, New Mexico, where Ethan Wickham, Job Coach and Stellar Coffee Trailer Manager, completed his facilitator training.

Ethan works with young employees at Stellar Coffee Co. and recognizes the importance of teaching practical money management skills. When asked what he learned, Ethan shared:

“That being financially stable isn’t as hard as we once thought.”

He also explained how he plans to use Money & ME with the youth he serves:

“After teaching them some of the things in Money and Me, I think they will start to realize what is a NEED and what is a WANT.”

Ethan hopes these lessons will help young people change their spending habits, save for family needs, and achieve financial goals like purchasing their first car.

When asked to describe the program, Ethan said:

“Money and Me is like a simple effective money management course that teaches you how to use money throughout life.”

Congratulations, Ethan! Thank you to CasaKids for helping young people build brighter financial futures!
