Georgia Tech Moneythink is a local chapter of the national organization Moneythink. Moneythink is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to restore economic health in the United States using financial and career education by training interested and motivated college volunteers to serve as mentors and role models to low and middle income high school students. The program is a 21 week program that focuses on giving high school students the decision making power and knowledge to take on real-world financial situations that they will eventually have to face. (Maybe put in examples of curriculum). The curriculum consists of weekly hour and a half classroom meetings with our students that consists of mentors being assigned a group of 3-5 students for the entire curriculum to ensure enough personal attention and relationship building to the students. An innovative way of making the lessons relevant outside of the classroom is through the use of the Moneythink Mobile app which is a way for the mentors to hold the mentees accountable by giving the mentees challenges, which act as homework, that help apply the classroom teachings to applicable real world scenarios. At Georgia Tech, our local chapter currently has two programs, one within Georgia Tech and another with Cristo Rey High School. The program within Georgia Tech is in conjunction with Georgia Tech’s Excel Program, a program at Georgia Tech for students with mild intellectual and developmental disabilities. (Describe…

Several terminologies have been used worldwide to describe wildfire or forest fire (e.g. Hardy, 2005; Bento-Gonçalves et al., 2012; Eriksen and Prior, 2013; Mhawej et al., 2015).
