Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Mercury: Financial Literacy
Project Mercury is aimed towards financial literacy. This is based on four pillars: income generation, investing, budgeting and income management. This project sought to educate people on all four pillars and was extended to teach the young ones the importance of saving and how to budget. The segment for youth was carried out entirely online. Several income generation skills were imparted and other pillars successfully delivered.
