Featured YFS Tool: The Importance of Budgeting

Street Business Mini Toolkit

This mini toolkit is meant to serve as a useful exercise for young people who are thinking about starting their own businesses. Its tools and stories are drawn from Street Kids International's (SKI) Street Business Toolkit, a business learning process created specifically for marginalized young people aged fifteen and up. The full business course improves economic literacy and enables young people to create or better their own income-generating activities. The Toolkit is designed for front-line youth workers to use directly with groups of youth at local agencies and is easily adaptable for use with young people accessing financial and complementary non-financial products and services.
