Wealth & Personal Management Workshop for semi orphans with Maylene's Hope Foundation
On Saturday August 28, 2021, UN Youth Seychelles (UNYS) collaborated with Maylene’s Hope Foundation (MHF) to host a Wealth & Personal Management Workshop for semi orphans. This workshop was hosted on site at English River Secondary School. Throughout the workshop, participants learnt key aspects of planning and savings and were able to actively participate. The session included a presentation created by UNYS and delivered by the President, Mr. Raymus Laurence, which touched on wealth creation and management.
Notably present at the session was the Patron of MHF, First Lady Mrs. Linda Ramkalwan. We at UNYS, are grateful for the this opportunity to collaborate with the foundation for such an important topic. We firmly believe that it is essential to equip the youth with the necessary skills and knowledge that will enable them to become financially aware individuals. We look forward to future collaborations with the foundation.
