The U.S. Conference of Mayors’ DollarWise Campaign invites you to participate in the
2016 Summer Youth Contest! Since 2012, over 7,000 youth have participated. This July, The DollarWise Campaign will launch the contest for a fifth time, partnering with the Bank of America Foundation to bring innovative and accessible video content from BetterMoneyHabits.com, to serve as the
contest curriculum.
THREE selected participants will win an iPad, Kindle, or an iPod Shuffle for each of the SIX weeks of
the contest! Raffles will be held every Friday at 5pm (ET) beginning July 1st, and ending August 5th.

Directions:
Go to the Summer Youth Jobs Contest link via the DollarWise website (bedollarwise.org/syc) to

You must complete each module before the end of each week to ensure that you are entered into the
drawings. Late completions will not be accepted. Please note that you can do any of the modules at
any time, as soon as you are able to access bedollarwise.org/syc.
Summer Youth Contest Final Exam:
After completing each of the six modules, youth will also have the opportunity to answer an additional
set of financial education questions that will further test your knowledge on the contest material. The
final test is fifteen questions in lenght and will cover information provided in the six contest modules
and the three contest infographics. All youth who score an 80% or higher on the quiz will receive an
official certificate from the U.S. Conference of Mayors’ DollarWise Campaign showing that they have
completed the program. You will only have two opportunities to complete the test, so go through the
contest material carefully!
