The company FINCA endorsed initiative of the educational camp “El Campo” for the students of 7-11 grades, which is aimed towards development of leadership skills among the new generation of Kyrgyzstan.
Organizers of the camp, young activists (those who graduated from FLEX programme), jointly with the Peace Corp’s volunteers organize the camp, which is conducted in English. They practice such camp three years. During ten days, the students have an opportunity to spend their time with fun and joy, to know new cultures and approaches.
Since some sessions of the camp include specific themes such as grant writing, budget formation and funds distribution, Baktybek Bazarbaev, specialist of the company FINCA, conducts training on basics of financial literacy for kids. According to preliminary data, about 80 children from different regions of the country will arrive to the camp.
The company staff is glad that the youth of Kyrgyzstan is ready to invest in children development and share knowledge on voluntary base. In its turn, the company accepted invitation to hold training on importance of savings for the camp participants.
