Thank You Underwriters and Scholarship Sponsors!

More than 400 teachers will join us in Colorado – because of you!

All PreK-12 Teachers Attend on Scholarship

Teachers who attend the Jump$tart National Educator Conference do so on scholarship. Yes, all of them! And it’s possible because of the support we receive from our generous and committed scholarship sponsors.  Each scholarship covers two hotel nights, six meal events, materials, and full registration for the conference ― enabling us to provide the conference experience to the teachers (and their students) who would benefit the most, regardless of their school’s or school district’s ability to pay.

Thank you! Your “Jump$tart Heart” is Showing!

Is it too late to sponsor the 2026 Jump$tart NEC? Well… we’re pleased to report that through your generosity, we’ll have capacity attendance at this year’s Jump$tart NEC and we pretty much have what we need for this year’s teachers.  But, it’s never too late to help.  Contact Dan Hebert or Tony Padgett to discuss our remaining needs for this year or to be among the first to pledge support for 2027. Or, let us know if you’re interested in contributing to other initiatives that support our nation’s financial educators.

Scholarship Sponsors/Providers – $20,000 and Above
In addition to the acknowledgements above, scholarship sponsors and providers of $20,000 or more are offered complimentary space in the Jump$tart NEC Exhibit Hall, recognition on conference signage and materials, where appropriate, and are given priority consideration for presenter roles, if available.

Conference Underwriters – $50,000 and Above
Conference Underwriters are provided all the sponsor benefits shown above, along with having their logo prominently displayed on the Jump$tart NEC webpage, onsite signage, and the participants’ tote bags. Underwriters are offered the opportunity to lead a breakout session or introduce a plenary session speaker.
