Financial Literacy for Students 🌍 This Wednesday, September 3rd, Bitcoin Africa Story will host a pilot program at His Touch School this summer — introducing participating students to the basics of money and Bitcoin as a digital innovation. Why it Matters: ➣ Understanding how money works. ➣ Exploring digital innovations such as Bitcoin. ➣ Building financial literacy for informed choices. This pilot program is the first step in expanding financial literacy programs to more schools. And yes — it’s FREE 🚀 Because knowledge is the best investment students can make in themselves. 🚨Disclaimer: This program is for educational purposes only. cc: @Blink Wallet, @npub1ekqd...q22r, @Zaawaadi, @npub1d39s...h33r, @npub17xvf...c9as, @CK image
