April is Financial Literacy Month. Join us for boardgames & learning financial literacy through our curated workshop
About this Event

April is Financial Literacy Month—a reminder of how critical it is to not only earn money, but to understand how to manage, grow, and protect it.


Join us for a fun evening of games & financial tips! We will learn concepts around budgeting, investing, tax strategy while building community.


Did you know...

While Canada ranks among the most financially literate countries globally, there are still significant gaps that impact everyday people. Studies show that only about 61% of Canadians can correctly answer basic financial knowledge questions, despite 85% believing they are financially knowledgeable. Additionally, nearly half of Canadians do not follow a budget, and 45% would rely on credit to cover an unexpected $500 expense.

Financial stress also remains one of the top concerns for Canadians—often ranking higher than work, health, or family pressures. At the same time, research shows that individuals who actively budget, save, and invest experience significantly higher financial well-being, regardless of income level.

The reality is: income alone does not determine financial success—financial habits and knowledge do.

That’s why we’re hosting an in-person Financial Literacy Workshop focused on practical, real-life strategies to help you take control of your financial future.


In this session, we’ll cover:
• Foundational investment strategies to grow your wealth
• Key tax concepts everyone should understand
• Practical steps to reduce financial stress and plan ahead

This workshop is designed to give you clarity, confidence, and actionable tools—not just theory.

Seats are limited to keep the session interactive and valuable. If you’re ready to build stronger financial habits and make more informed decisions, we’d be happy to have you join us.
