My Wonderful World

The NAA Foundation supports National Geographic Education programs, which teach people how to care for the planet, its resources and all of its inhabitants. Projects include Geography Awareness Week, held annually in November, and My Wonderful World, a National Geographic-led campaign to expand geographic learning in school, at home and in communities. 

North American Securities Administration Association

The NAA Foundation has teamed up with the North American Securities Administration Association to offer “FSI: Fraud Scene Investigator.”
This interactive program helps students learn how to fight fraud firsthand by delving into newspaper stock tables, researching companies through online news, and deciphering the truth of investments from fraudulent sales pitches. In the initial FSI program, “Suitable Investments,” students help uncover a million-dollar fraud in progress and put the mysterious con man, “Mr. X,” behind bars.

The program, along with a corresponding guide for teachers, is available free for use in classrooms and at home through the NASAA Web site. Click here for more.
