Financial Literacy Program
Financial literacy is important because it equips us with the knowledge and skills we need to manage money effectively.
The start of a person’s financial literacy journey is undeniably important and critical to their financial successes in the future. Learning the fundamental basics of financial prowess begins as kids–saving up allowances, controlling impulsive buys, finding ways to make money through chores and lemonade stands, etc.
Having the proper skills and knowledge about what to do with money and how to use it wisely at a young age is key to a good financial grasp for the future. This program is also for adults who suffered financial issues in their adult years.
We Make Financial Literacy Fun To Learn
K.E.E.P uses an innovative learning method created by Visa that strikes a balance between education and entertainment. Students can learn financial lessons without feeling like they’re studying, and edutainment can help them retain the information better. According to a 2013 study commissioned by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, students who played educational games in addition to the standard curriculum performed better on tests than students who didn’t.
Here are a few simple ways your child and parents can learn about money.
