Helpful ways to relieve the holiday season stress

Just in time for the holidays AFSA partners with FELA (Financial Education & Literacy Advisers) to offer members free financial planning resources. As the holidays approach you might be more concerned with your financial well-being than usual. 

FELA offers a complimentary, online financial education program known as LifeCents for VALOR for AFSA members and their families. Through this program, AFSA members and their families get a complimentary personalized financial health assessment, special offers on financial services, and learn to better manage their money.

After signing up, the website directs you to the dashboard where you can begin your financial assessments; which are abundantly helpful. The assessments range from financial health, credit report basics, and VALOR even teaches you how to create a budget. 

​From the perspective of a twenty-something year old, I greatly appreciate the benefits of FELA. It allows me to become more confident in my spending, and ensures me that I am on the road to financial stability. The best part is that you can enter the grand prize drawing for a $250 gift card!

Getting to where you want to go financially takes work, and AFSA's new member benefit can help by providing an assessment and tools to learn better money management. 

Relieve the stress of holiday spending and get the support you need from FELA today!
