Beyond the language skills, participants gained crucial knowledge about how credit works in America, including how to establish and maintain good credit, the importance of paying bills on time, and how their financial decisions impact their future borrowing power. The presentation reflected USSFCU Foundation's commitment to empowering all community members with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve financial success.  ## Related posts [![Empowering the Students of Dorothy Hamm Middle School](https://ussfcufoundation.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Media%205_2.jpg?height=200&name=Media%205_2.jpg)](https://ussfcufoundation.org/ussfcu-foundation-in-the-community/dorothy-hamm-06-2026) ## [Empowering the Students of Dorothy Hamm Middle School](https://ussfcufoundation.org/ussfcu-foundation-in-the-community/dorothy-hamm-06-2026) [Elias Kalinen](https://ussfcufoundation.org/ussfcu-foundation-in-the-community/author/elias-kalinen) Jun 5, 2026, 9:21:54 AM At the USSFCU Foundation, we believe that financial literacy is more than just a set of skills—it...
