"An Oasis in the Desert".
Watch this 8 minute video detailing the beginnings of the Xposure Science, Technology, Finance and Employment Institute for Youth. Listen to Executive Director Raymond L. Thomas Jr. talk passionately about why he felt the need to create an outside the box educational program that exposes children as young as 5 yrs. of age to bank books, science, technology, employment skills and the stock market.
Listen to parents like Ms. Tracy Brown, Mr. C.D. James and PS 81 Principal Ms. Cheryl Ault talk about how a program like Xposure can help change the fortunes of our young people as well as the communities in which they live.
"It is my belief that our number one job as teachers, parents and a community is to expose our young people to the infinite number of opportunities they have to become productive, successful citizens in this great country".

Students learn the basics about savings and investment, deposits and withdrawals, checks, and interest and lending as they deposit their earnings into savings accounts on a regular basis. Students also learn fundamentals about the stock market, including ownership, stocks, research, and investing. Parents are encouraged to open their own savings accounts, as well as to open online custodial investment accounts for their children. Here students can invest money they have earned through Xposure in stocks they have researched and chosen.
