01

Making volunteering less intimidating

Most employees want to make an impact, but standing in front of a classroom can feel terrifying. Jon saw that fear firsthand when training new volunteers. Many worried they’d look boring or lose the students’ attention. Then they tried Cashy’s interactive, plug-and-play games. The moment volunteers saw how easy the games were to run and how students lit up, the nerves disappeared.

Walking out of the classroom, volunteers feel like they just crushed it.

“For volunteers, Cashy helps bridge the gap between their confidence level and actually doing something in the classroom.” Jon Maroni, Financial Engagement Manager, Numerica Credit Union

Simple to use, easy to run

Cashy’s plug-and-play design makes it easy for anyone to walk into a classroom and start teaching — no prep, no slides, no stress.

That simplicity has turned first-time volunteers into repeat presenters who actually look forward to community events.

“It’s a very easy tool to get a new facilitator set up. It’s intuitive to run, easy to use, and the backend is simple to understand.” Jon Maroni, Financial Engagement Manager, Numerica Credit Union
03

Training new volunteers is easy

To train new volunteers, Jon doesn’t run a long workshop. He just plays Cashy.

New presenters experience firsthand how the game works, how students react, and how simple it is to guide a session. It’s learning by doing and it builds instant confidence.

“We play Cashy during our training sessions so people can see what it’s like to play and to facilitate.” Jon Maroni, Financial Engagement Manager, Numerica Credit Union

Building a culture of financial education

For Jon, Cashy has become more than just a classroom tool — it’s how Numerica makes financial education part of their culture.

It gives every employee, not just educators, the confidence to step up and lead a session.

Cashy has turned financial education into something everyone wants to be part of at Numerica.

“If you have a challenge of getting people to facilitate, Cashy is going to make that much easier.” Jon Maroni, Financial Engagement Manager, Numerica Credit Union
