WELFARE OF THE NATION

Financial literacy project

Who are we?

From the idea of a board game to a global public organization - this is how our path developed. During the quarantine of 2020, Rotary and Rotaract Club Kyiv International initiated the creation of financial literacy training based on the Cash-Flow board game (we call it not game, but training).
The project began to grow rapidly and soon outgrew the number of volunteers and the capacity of the organization that created it.
During the first 2 years of the trainings, 3,500 volunteers joined them.
The active expansion of the project prompted us to register a separate public organization - "Welfare of Nation", the name of which comes from the mission of the project - "Improving the welfare of the nation by teaching financial literacy".

What are we doing?

We conduct training board games with Cash-Flow (adapted version of the game), adapted to the Ukrainian economy, in the Ukrainian language
First, we teach volunteers the rules of the game, coaching skills and help them to master leadership skills
We negotiate with schools, libraries, and universities to provide space and hold games with teenagers on their territory (age category 12-21 years old)
We print board games and methodological materials for training games in Ukrainian
We administer the training process, the schedule of training and visits to schools, libraries and universities
The board game lasts 5 hours. In fact, it is a transformative training, not a game. 3-8 people can participate at one table in one training
We train trainers in financial literacy, and they bring this knowledge to children during transformational trainings

Financial literacy project

The financial literacy project is aimed at conducting free training both offline and online for young people, using an innovative approach using a board game - a business environment simulator "Cash-Flow". The game is characterized by its adaptation to the realities of the Ukrainian economy, which makes it an effective tool for studying financial aspects.
