Beneficiaries & Partners

The Illinois Financial Educators Council teams up with diverse community stakeholders toward one shared objective: helping people work toward economic empowerment. Along with our key collaborators, we increase access to high-quality financial education and develop programs for your neighbors and community members.

Our beneficiary organizations and partners, who are committed to financial well-being in communities around the globe, are directly supported by our team’s efforts and dedication.

Advocacy Partners

Partners of the Council have demonstrated their commitment to assist the campaign across Illinois in a variety of ways. We appreciate their helpful support to promote the financial wellness movement.

The Basketball League

The Basketball League

The Basketball League (TBL) is dedicated to delivering a World Class Professional Basketball experience to our community, our fans, and our business partners, with the following mission:

  • Provide communities with a professional basketball team that gives an affordable/quality family entertainment experience.
  • Offer support and encouragement to local communities through engagement in school and group appearances, youth camps, clinics, and non-profit organizations.
  • Afford basketball players the opportunity to make a living playing the game they love, in America.
  • Procure local individuals or groups an opportunity to own a professional sports business. Provide a relatively low cost barrier to entry and a proven game plan to success, with a return on their investment while positively impacting their region.

Beneficiary Groups

The movement to promote financial wellness still operates at the grassroots level and our beneficiary groups are key to delivering training to individuals across the state. These beneficiary groups have received in-kind donations and support from the Council to empower the people they serve with financial literacy education.
