Pendampingan Literasi Keuangan untuk Panti Asuhan Baitussalam Bandung

Abstract

Financial literacy is an important skill that needs to be mastered from an early age, especially for children and adolescents in orphanages who have limited access to financial education. Lack of knowledge about financial management and investment can hinder their readiness to achieve financial independence. This Community Service (PkM) activity aims to improve financial literacy at the Baitussalam Bandung Orphanage through interactive training on financial management, budget planning, and introduction to investment instruments and financial protection. The methods used include delivering materials, discussions, case studies, and simulations of experience-based practices. Evaluation is carried out through pre-tests and post-tests to measure the increase in participants' understanding. It is hoped that this program will equip participants with basic financial knowledge, form good financial habits, and encourage them to be better prepared to face future economic challenges independently and wisely.
