The Performance Wealth Student-Athlete NIL Alliance is designed to help college student-athletes learn about finance and participate in a remote internship program to give them business experience.
HINSDALE, Ill., May 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Performance Wealth, proudly announces the kickoff of the Performance Wealth Student-Athlete NIL Alliance, with 17 student-athletes from colleges and universities around the country. The program is designed to teach and empower student-athletes both on and off the field. Through the program, Performance Wealth hopes to provide financial literacy training and education that will prepare them for their future careers and give them tools to help achieve financial success and economic freedom.
"Being a former student-athlete myself, I understand the pressures that many of these young people feel to excel both academically and athletically. We made this part of our intern program which will allow them to participate from wherever they are going to school so they can keep up their athletic commitments while also completing an internship," explained Thomas J. Salvino, CEO & Wealth Manager, Performance Wealth. "As a firm, we have always been passionate about helping people and improving lives and see this new effort as part of that mission."
Performance Wealth has a longstanding commitment to helping young people learn about finance, develop good money habits, and understand the power of successful investing in order to have a successful life and gain financial independence. For more than 25 years, the firm's leaders have sponsored an internship program that gives college students real-life business experience while also teaching them about finance, investing, savings, and being good stewards of money. The Performance Wealth Student-Athlete NIL Alliance is the next step in the evolution of that program.
Among the benefits for the student-athletes are the ability to participate in an internship and develop professional references, both of which are prerequisites for any post-college career.
