Dear Friends,
The Florida Council on Economic Education (FCEE) is proud to host the 26th Annual First Coast Business Hall of Fame on Friday, November 22nd at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront. At this memorable event, we will be CELEBRATING THE EXTRAORDINARY class of 2024 and all First Coast Business Hall of Fame members who continue to bring inspiration and excellence to our community.
I am delighted to chair the Hall of Fame Event and Selection Committee this year and look forward to an exciting event that will celebrate the accomplishments, leadership and service of the Honorees, while supporting the critical work of the FCEE in preparing our young people for their financial futures.
Sponsorship packages are available and are a generous way to show your support for an inductee, current Hall of Fame member, or the hard-working teachers and students in our community.
Please join us as we honor this outstanding class, salute decades of Hall of Fame members, and promote economic and personal finance education in K-12 schools throughout the First Coast region and Florida!
Jeanne M. Augspurger, Esq.
2024 Event & Selection Committee Chair
In 1999, the FCEE created the First Coast Business Hall of Fame to recognize exceptional individuals who’ve distinguished themselves through their contributions to the First Coast community. The honor is reserved for leaders who’ve made significant impacts through their business and civic achievements and by serving as lifelong examples of integrity and high ideals. Members of the Hall of Fame are inspirations to young people who will follow in their footsteps.
Proceeds from the Hall of Fame support the economic, financial literacy and entrepreneurship education programs of the FCEE and the Center on Economic & Financial Education at Florida State College
at Jacksonville.
Established by statewide business leaders in 1975, the FCEE provides teacher training programs, curricula, student competitions and other educational resources free-of- charge to thousands of teachers each year throughout the state’s K-12 system.
By investing in the economic and financial know how of our children, the First Coast business community has a tremendous influence in developing the informed and responsible leaders of tomorrow.
