We all wish to raise generous children as parents. We want our kids to grasp the importance of giving and to feel the sense of purpose and joy that comes with it. In fact, many charities can help your children grow up to become charitable humans, and also educate them to be more financially literate. In this blog, we will talk about the best Children’s Finance Educational Charities in the UK.

YounGo Money directly aligns with these charities, especially since we all share the belief of the importance of developing healthy money habits and how much these lessons can benefit children in the long run.

We at YounGo Money, in fact, have come up with the free app to help parents and children achieve the in-practice side of being financially educated and acquire healthy money habits through a learning-by-doing approach.

MyBnk

Mybnk Organization together with young people creates and delivers innovative, high-impact and high-energy financial education programmes. Their experts help to build young people’s money knowledge, skills, mindsets and habits at key transitional moments. Two-thirds of their work is with young adults in vulnerable circumstances focusing on ‘survival’ money skills for independent living.

As well as mybnk we aim to build young people’s healthy money habits and mindsets in order for them to grow up into financially literate adults, being comfortable with their finance and money knowledge. We help parents and children achieve this through our app. (read more about it here)

The Centre for Financial Capability

The Centre for Financial Capability believes that every child in the UK should be supported to develop their financial skills. The behaviours necessary to navigate critical financial decisions in later life, starting at primary school.

TCFC is a newborn charity, that in such a short time has been able to build a lot of support and investments.

MP John Glenn has spoke about them stating: “Over the last year we’ve learned many things, but one of them is how important it is for people to have the information, the skills and the confidence to engage with their finances. The CFC is a testament to the difference that can be made when financial services and the voluntary sectors join forces to improve financial education for children and young people”.
