AICPA Foundation funds two television shows to increase youth's awareness of accounting, personal finance.


In an effort to increase the financial literacy of America's youth, the AICPA Foundation created two new children's television shows to be broadcast on PBS YOU, a satellite affiliate of PBS. Working with Cerebellum cer·e·bel·lums or cer·e·bel·la (-bl, the nation's leading producer of educational videos and DVDs for high school and college students, the Foundation provided funding for script writing and filming of two programs: "Pennywise" and "Business Building Blocks." They are aimed at increasing middle and high school students' awareness of personal finance and accounting.
