FinStart is a Canadian non-profit.

We partner with parents, teachers, community organizations, and  financial institutions who aspire to empower youth through financial literacy.

We currently have three initiatives under way.

FinStart Hackathon:

Design Your Tomorrow

​​A different approach to "doing" financial literacy.

Student teams identify and solve problems that matter to them and their communities.

 

Check out a video from our inaugural Hackathon!

Toolkit
(for students)

FinStart's Toolkit is an online bootcamp. It's interactive learning - games, quizzes, case studies to solve using our research tables and checklists, and interactive stories.  They help you build, trouble-shoot, and maintain your financial set-up.

Over 3,300 financial literacy interactive modules completed, 12,099 quizes solved, and 18,040 glossary questions answered!
