Crayola and MFS Investment Management to provide free financial literacy resources during Crayola Creativity Week 2026
Crayola has partnered with MFS Investment Management to provide financial literacy resources during Crayola Creativity Week 2026.
The free resources will be given to educators and families to help them learn how to save, avoid money mistakes, and plan for the future.
A learning video featuring actor Michael Rainey Jr will also be included with the resources, sharing creative ways to build financial literacy skills and vocabulary.
"Creativity is a critical life skill that helps children reach their full potential. Using creativity to help kids become money smart brightens their future," explains Cheri Sterman, Senior Director of Education, Crayola. "Our partnership with MFS underscores a shared commitment to empowering students with both creative confidence and financial literacy skills."
In collaboration with MSF Investment Management, Crayola Creativity Week 2026 will include the Investing in Creativity Sweepstakes, which will see ten educators receive $2,500 in Crayola art supplies for their schools to host a family event focused on financial literacy. One family will also win $4,500 to establish or contribute to a 529 Savings Plan and $500 in art supplies.
Last year, more than 13 million students across 120 countries took part in Crayola Creativity Week.
"At MFS, we believe financial literacy and creativity are powerful tools for helping young people reach their full potential," says Maureen Bryan, Vice President, Director of Corporate Citizenship at MFS. "Through our partnership with Crayola Creativity Week, we're inspiring students to think boldly, build confidence, and make meaningful connections between imagination and their financial futures."
