On Sunday, we welcomed the first participants to 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁: 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴, 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴, Aidha's new free half-day financial education workshop for migrant domestic workers.

During the session, participants explored practical ways to manage their money with confidence - from setting financial goals and building healthy savings habits to protecting themselves from scams and making informed financial decisions.

It was such a joy to kick off our very first session! 🧡 A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, amazing mentors for leading the session, and Aidha ambassadors for all their support.

Earlier this month, at Aidha's 20th Anniversary celebration, we launched MoneyStart as one of the newest initiatives under our Financial Literacy ACCESS Campaign. This first session marks an exciting start, and we're looking forward to welcoming many more participants in the months ahead! ✨

As we celebrate 20 years of empowering migrant domestic workers through financial education, we’re excited to launch the Financial Literacy ACCESS Campaign to provide more support for women as they begin and build their lives in Singapore.

Our first initiative, MoneyStart, is a free, practical half-day financial literacy course designed to equip migrant domestic workers with essential money management skills early in their migration journey. Through this programme, we hope to help women make informed financial decisions, avoid financial pitfalls, and build greater resilience for the future. 🧡

Together we can create more opportunities for women to grow in confidence, strengthen their financial knowledge, and work towards their goals! 💪
