Because a Pig Was Kissed

Three Philadelphia schools got checks of $5,500 each to use for financial literacy efforts, funds raised in a kiss-a-pig fundraiser in the fall.

Shown here, from left, are student Jynnah Woods; Randi Marmer, assistant vice president of community relations, TruMark Financial; Oscar Torrealva, Eastern North Philadelphia branch manager, TruMark Financial; William Garner; Ruth King, Robert Morris School principal; Nasir Jackson; Donna Katz, kindergarten teacher; and student Ma’hasin Jordan.

TruMark Financial Credit Union representatives awarded a $5,500 grant to the Robert Morris School in Philadelphia, one of three schools the $1.5 billion credit union raised money for in its first-annual Kiss-A-Pig Financial Literacy Fundraiser in the fall. The schools plan to use the $5,500 grants to purchase resources such as math games, play checkbooks with calculators, Money Bingo and play supermarket sets. These games will be used to teach the fundamentals of saving, borrowing and budgeting.
