During my youth days I often wondered why financial literacy is not taught in our school. I noticed most of the schools focused on Language, Science and Math only.
The older I grow, the more I became aware of the importance of having the knowledge and skills of managing money, such as budgeting, saving, compound interest, debt, investing and giving. I wished someday that financial education would be taught in schools from elementary through high school.
Since early 2000, I have been searching for a good financial literacy program for Filipino children.ย In 2017, after years of prayers, Kids Growise was incorporated and we were able to contact the leading financial education in Asia – MoneyTree Asia Pacific to work together to light up a brighter financial future for the next generation in the Philippines.
