About us
At MoneyTime we believe financial literacy is an essential life skill for all children. By teaching it to children we can make a real difference to their lifelong financial outcomes. Learning early means they develop positive attitudes and behavior towards money at the outset of their financial journey, reducing the need to remedy poor decision making later on.
We hope that you will join us on our mission to help the next generation of children be financially successful.
