Overview

Teach Children to Save South Africa (TCTS SA) was adopted as a key event during the July National Savings Month, following the successful pilot launch on 25 July 2008. The initiative aims to take the savings message to our youths, equipping them with the basic financial skills to help them become better savers now and in future.

As with the pilot event, volunteers from the financial sector will exchange their boardrooms for classrooms and deliver a 30minutes to 1hour lesson, to learners in Grades 4-7 in schools across the country. Volunteers will use their work experience to inspire learners to become life long savers.
