Project YouthFinLit (PYFL) is a student-led nonprofit organization committed to transforming lives through financial empowerment. As an international 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we stand at the intersection of passion, education and global impact with a singular focus on spreading financial literacy among the youth worldwide. 

Deeta Saravanan is the founder and CEO of Project YouthFinLit, a nonprofit dedicated to providing quality financial education to young people across the globe. In the past year, PYFL has worked with over 2,000 students across 12 countries in partnership with eight international organizations and schools.

What sets us apart is our unique student-led model. Driven by a team of motivated student leaders, we thrive on innovation, adaptability, and a shared commitment to making a difference. Our leadership team continuously collaborates to design and implement programs that resonate with students globally. This approach not only ensures relatability and engagement but also nurtures leadership skills among the very demographic we seek to empower. 

Our impact extends far beyond geographical boundaries. Through strategic partnerships, collaborations and the use of digital platforms, we have successfully brought PYFL’s programs to various corners of the world. Our commitment to inclusivity is exemplified through targeted outreach programs. 

Collaborating with local organizations and NGOs, PYFL ensures that financial literacy reaches communities all around the world. Community engagement, mentorship programs, and the distribution of educational materials in local languages are all part of our strategy to make financial education accessible to those who need it the most. 

Students are able to volunteer for PYFL by filling out interest forms that are linked in our Instagram LinkTree and website under the volunteer section. Students have a variety of volunteer opportunities to choose from including in-person and virtual seminars, brochure and presentation-making and even writing for our blog.  

Project YouthFinLit is more than an organization spreading financial literacy; it is a beacon of hope and a testament to the transformative power of knowledge. Through our innovative programs, student-led initiatives, and unwavering dedication, we can shape a future where financial literacy is not just a skill but a universal right, paving the way for empowered and informed individuals worldwide.
