Chapters
What we do:
Straightforward Finance chapters are the local extension of our mission to make financial literacy accessible, practical, and engaging for students. Each chapter operates within its school or community to host workshops, lead discussions, and create content that simplifies real-world financial concepts for teens. By combining national resources from Straightforward Finance with local leadership and outreach, our chapters empower students to take ownership of their financial education while expanding our impact beyond a single platform. We are just getting started, but hope to someday have a worldwide system!

Marco Polakovic
I’m Marco, a Delbarton School student passionate about finance and learning how money works in the real world. I began sharing that interest by teaching financial literacy at my former middle school, and it’s since grown into something that’s become important to me because I believe understanding money early creates better habits later. When I’m not analyzing markets, you’ll usually find me hiking, snowboarding, or training for my next climb.
