Millennium Fellowship Project: Comrade Wealth Hub
Comrade Wealth Hub is a proposed blog that aims to educate the youthful generation on wealth creation at the early stages of life by optimizing the resources at their disposal. This addresses the limitations on SDG goal 1: No poverty. The blog also will create awareness on financial literacy through personalised articles on the subject.
