FICO Hosts Free Financial Literacy Event for New Jersey Teens on the First Stop of the Chelsea FC Women’s Summer Tour Seite 1

Global analytics software leader, FICO, will host a free Score A Better Future Fundamentals credit education event for teens in Harrison with the help of local partner, Flag Nation on August 19. This event aims to provide students with the knowledge and resources to better understand their financial health, including an overview on the role of
credit, and the FICO Score, the credit score used by 90% of top US lenders to make lending decisions.

Fundamentals is part of FICO’s ‘Fields of Financial Empowerment’ tour, in partnership with the U.S. Soccer Foundation and Chelsea FC Women, the reigning Women’s Super League champions. This credit education event helps kick off their highly anticipated U.S. tour. Students will be able to attend the Chelsea FC Women x Gotham FC
Women’s match for free following the workshop. The match will showcase the exceptional talent in women’s soccer and celebrate the rising prominence of women’s sports on the global stage.

The Fields of Financial Empowerment tour intends to bring wider access to financial literacy education nationwide aiming to improve credit and personal finance knowledge through a series of
workshops. FICO’s Score A Better Future Fundamentals program is designed to help educate teens on how FICO Scores can impact their financial health and provide a foundation to develop good
financial habits.

“With Chelsea FC Women making their highly anticipated visit to the U.S., we are thrilled to combine the excitement for this match with our mission to empower Harrison teens through financial
literacy, preparing them for their future financial well-being,” said Jenelle Dito, FICO Scores Client Services. “Whether their financial goals are long-term or short-term, we want to ensure
that teens understand how to prepare now and start practicing good financial habits to set them up for success.”

Flag Nation’s, Conrado Torres added, “It is an honor to partner with FICO on this initiative and an incredible opportunity to inspire and empower the youth in our community with financial
knowledge. This event not only celebrates the exciting rise of women’s sports but also motivates the next generation to achieve their full potential both on and off the field.”
