" This is a very good platform to work on as this gives us a lot of opportunities and connects us with a lot of people. Not only it helps us but also helps society to change their views regarding social situations. This is a great opportunity for us to come forward with our idea to give people right advice regarding finance. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Vriddhi

Project Vriddhi is an initiative that will help women and members of the LGBTQ+ community achieve financial literacy. For this project, we conducted an online survey for all age groups, where the sample was convenience-based. We recorded 451 responses which comprised 350 female respondents, 78 male respondents, and 2 non-binary respondents. The mode age group of respondents was 18-24. In the survey, the questions were regarding basic financial knowledge like did they understand the sum breakup of bills or if they knew the difference between debit cards and credit cards, how much they saved, etc. One of the questions was to rate on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 being dependent while 5 being independent), how independent was an individual while making a financial decision. With the average score being 3.02, only 27.28% of female respondents made financial decisions independently compared to 50.53% of male respondents. This data indicates that women's empowerment and upliftment in terms of being financially aware needs to be amplified. We, being members of this society, wish to bridge this gap between women and men and all genders alike with our project.
