As we try to establish good habits in our youth for the developing a strong nation, we must not ignore a vital ingredient: Financial awareness. Many children go to adult hood devoid of an ability to handle money. Keeping the importance of financial awareness for children in mind, the finance club of PIM, organised a financial awareness programme for the benefit of children of Kuruba Community on 28/10/2013. Seven students of PIM designed a programme which included the interactive talk with the children of Kuruba community and enlightened them about the sound money management principles. A questionnaire was prepared by the students to understand the financial awareness of the children. Through the programme students engaged 50 children of Kuruba community, understood their level of financial awareness and learnt the better ways of reaching such children with practical examples. The beneficiaries in turn learnt about the principles of money management and adopting them in their lives.
