Access Bank Plc has reaffirmed its dedication to financial literacy and empowerment at a money management training organised for over 20,000 children across the country, recently.
The training initiative, implemented in partnership with 9ijakids and Kidpreneur Africa was part of activities marking this year’s Global Money Week (GMW).
With Access Bank as a key sponsor, the initiative, themed, “Learn, Save, Earn,” engaged 100 schools in 10 Nigerian states, emphasising the importance of saving, earning, and making responsible financial decisions from an early age.
Commenting on the initiative, Access Bank Project Manager, Education, Kosiso Chinenye, stated that the gesture underscored the bank’s broader commitment to economic empowerment and financial inclusion.
“By supporting Global Money Week 2025, we continue to play a vital role in shaping financially responsible future leaders in Nigeria,” she said.
Also commenting, the founder of Kidpreneur Africa and co-organisers of the programme, Mrs. Juliet Obi stressed the importance of financial literacy in shaping a financially secured future for children.
“Early exposure to the principles of saving and earning can help children develop entrepreneurial mindsets and secure their financial independence,” she noted.
In her remark, the Head teacher of Community Secondary Commercial School, Akwa-Ibom, Enwongo Effiong Okon said, “This effort is highly laudable and demonstrates significant value in educating students on the fundamentals of saving, earning, investing, and prudent financial decision-making.”
