I have been a part of my school’s YIS chapter for 2 years now and one of my favorite memories was creating my stock pitch with my partner. This was the start of a new friendship and allowed me to further my investment knowledge.

Joining YIS is the best decision I’ve ever made – not only did I become more financially literate, but I also met an amazing community of people who all strive to make the world a better place.
