Stocks in the Future Hosts Sports Spectacular Fundraising Event
Fundraiser will be held on April 25, 2024 at Guilford Hall Brewery

BALTIMORE, Md. March 25, 2024. Stocks in the Future (SIF), a non-profit organization dedicated to equity in financial literacy, announces its highly anticipated signature fundraiser, the 2024 Sports Spectacular. The event is scheduled for Thursday, April 25, 2024 at Guilford Hall Brewery, from 6 p.m - 8 p.m. Speakers include Orioles Hall of Famer, Mike Bordick, from The Baseball Warehouse LLC, and SIF students. Guests can network with other professionals and participate in a silent auction featuring sports memorabilia. Tickets are $95 each. Proceeds directly support SIF's efforts to provide financial literacy skills to middle school students in Baltimore.
"At Stocks in the Future, we believe in the transformative power of education and financial literacy," said Rebecca Lange-Thernes, the Executive Director of SIF. "The Sports Spectacular event not only raises vital funds for our programs but also creates awareness about the importance of investing in the next generation."
For more than 20 years, SIF has partnered with Baltimore-area middle schools to teach students financial literacy skills, with a focus on wealth building through investments. Students are rewarded for good grades and attendance by earning virtual SIF dollars, which are available for students to invest in publicly traded companies, such as: Under Armour and Walt Disney Company. Students continue to build on their financial knowledge - and watch their investments grow - through the program’s duration.
Tickets for the Sports Spectacular are on sale on Eventbrite (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sif-sports-spectacular-tickets-852436589787?aff=oddtdtcreator), offering attendees an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution while enjoying an unforgettable evening.
"We invite the community to join us for this extraordinary networking opportunity for the business community and be part of a movement that is shaping the future," added Rebecca Lange-Thernes. "Together, we can make a difference in the lives of middle school students and empower them to reach their full potential."
