Windsor, CO - March 3, 2020- In the first two months of 2020 Canvas Credit Union in Colorado has hosted seven Financial Reality Fairs reaching over 175 high school and college students! Using the Mad City Money program from CUNA, credit union employees help students face real world financial choices in an attempt to stay within their budgets.  Students, teachers, and volunteers all enjoy the experience and students get a taste of unexpected financial adventures when the simulation deals them an unplanned car repair or lucky contest bonus.
