OUR MISSION
For over six decades, California Council on Economic Education (CCEE)’s mission has been to improve
California’s economic future by teaching economics and financial literacy, especially in underserved
communities.
OUR WORK
We believe that economics is part of our everyday lives. Economics helps us to understand the world
around us, and it’s the key to unlocking personal financial success. This is an integral part of CCEE’s
mission, and we take this job very seriously, because we’re the only ones doing it! We are the only
nonprofit provider of K-12 economic education in California!
Student Programs
CCEE is the only nonprofit in
California that provides
California’s students’ with
enriching economic and
personal finance education
through hands-on programming
such as our local and national
student competitions, the Financial
Advisor’s Contest, National
Economics Challenge, the
Personal Finance Challenge,
and The Stock Market Game.
Teacher Programs
Investing in teachers and
supporting their instruction
yields the largest returns in the
mission to create an
economically and financially
literate California. Every
single teacher trained by CCEE
equals 100 students
educated every year.
Community Programs
By teaming up with various
community partners,
such as the Los Angeles Unified
School District and school
districts throughout California,
CCEE is able to deliver impactful
economic and personal
finance programming to
students, teachers and their
families.
CCEE ANNUAL AWARDS GALA
Each year, we gather at our Annual Awards Gala for an evening filled with gratitude and inspiration. We
reflect on our successes of the past year and honor the CCEE advocates who enable us to keep doing
this critical work. Making a difference takes investment - investment of time, experience, and, of course,
funding. We take this time to showcase the partners who invested all of the above and more this year.
Without them we could not do what we do.
