When a teacher requests a volunteer, they specify what topic they'd like to be presented. The SIFMA Foundation provides volunteer presentations (FINRA Reviewed), which share meaningful, relevant content with students. Some of our partnering firms may require their volunteers to use their own firm's financial education materials.  In these cases, teachers and volunteers will review these together to determine which is the best fit for their class.
