About the Campaign

Building Financial Awareness for a Brighter Tomorrow

Financial Knowledge Should Be Accessible to Everyone.

Truck drivers spend much of their working lives on the road, managing responsibilities both on their journeys and at home. As digital financial services become more common, understanding savings, financial products, and the risks of digital fraud becomes increasingly important. In 2023, the Ustaad initiative collaborated with givfunds on a financial literacy and inclusion campaign that reached approximately 4,000 truck drivers. The programme focused on practical financial awareness, helping drivers better understand financial decisions and recognise potential risks.
