Zambia Financial Literacy Week 2026
Theme: “Smart Money Talks”… and our children are already speaking it.
Yesterday, myAkili Kids Project hosted a Piggy Bank Opening & Savings Review Session as part of Financial Literacy Week 2026.
50 learners from Jatamo School in Chongwe came through to our offices in Lusaka to do something powerful… open their piggy banks and reflect on their savings journey.
For many of them, this was more than just counting money.
It was about discipline, delayed gratification and learning that every small coin saved today builds a better tomorrow.
From sharing what they saved for, to the challenges they faced, to setting new goals, and confidently telling us what “Smart Money Talks” means to them. This was inspiring.
And of course, we celebrated a few learners who demonstrated outstanding saving habits through our Top Savers Recognition.
This is what we mean when we say we are transforming children’s relationship with money not just through knowledge, but through a change in saving behaviour.
A big thank you to our partners, supporters and the children who made this possible 🙏🏽
