GoHenry's new parent company, Acorns has products that can help improve financial literacy for adults too. It has features that allow adults to save and with educational features along the way, and that's where Kennedy Reynolds, Acorn's chief education officer comes in to show us how their mission aligns with this larger goal of global financial inclusion.
