Ajman Finance Shines at ‘Our Summer is Happiness’ Event

The Ajman Department of Finance has recently made headlines by clinching dual excellence awards at the fifth edition of “Our Summer is Happiness.” This vibrant summer program, which takes place annually, is organized by the Ajman Government and aims to foster community spirit, invest in the youth, develop vital skills, and unearth new talents among the Emirate’s younger populace.

Celebrating Youth and Community Cohesion

The ceremony, held under the esteemed patronage of His Highness Sheikh Ammar bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, the Crown Prince of Ajman and the Chairman of the Executive Council, was a testament to the ongoing commitment of the Ajman Government to nurture and support its community. This year’s edition of the program was built around several key themes necessary for fostering local excellence, including cultural enrichment and community cooperation, ensuring that the future leaders of Ajman are well-equipped for the challenges ahead.

One of the highlights of the event was the recognition of the Department of Finance’s “Future Wallet” program. This groundbreaking initiative won first place in the Best Cultural Program category, showcasing its innovative approach to financial education for the youth. Financial literacy is essential for today’s adolescents, and the “Future Wallet” program was tailored specifically to address this need.

The Future Wallet Program: Equipping Youth with Financial Savvy

The “Future Wallet” program provided a comprehensive educational experience to 30 young participants, equipping them with essential skills in financial planning. Over the course of the program, they learned not only the basics of budgeting and saving but also how to build balanced investment portfolios. This was achieved through a mix of theoretical instruction and engaging, practical activities designed to resonate with a younger audience.

Participants were exposed to discussions and workshops where they learned to set financial goals, assess risks, and create savings strategies tailored to their individual situations. By creating an interactive learning environment, the program ensured that students not only absorbed the material but also developed a practical understanding of financial management.

Moreover, Mahra Al Balushi, the Corporate Communications Administrator at the Department of Finance, was honored with the Best Program Coordinator Award for her outstanding efforts in executing the “Future Wallet” program. This accolade reflects the hard work and dedication she and her team put into delivering a successful educational initiative, further spotlighting the importance of skilled program coordinators in shaping effective community programs.

Looking Ahead: Investment in Future Generations

His Excellency Marwan Al Ali, the Director General of the Department of Finance, praised the team’s commitment and passion. His remarks highlighted the department’s continuous efforts to enhance community programs that positively contribute to the quality of life. He emphasized the importance of preparing future generations to navigate the economic landscape with wisdom and agility.

Al Ali’s sentiments resonate widely within the community. As young individuals develop the skills to manage their finances responsibly, Ajman is poised to create a generation of financially literate adults who can contribute positively to the local economy.

A Commitment to Sustainable Development

The awards received at the ceremony serve as a motivational factor for the Department of Finance to persist in delivering quality programs that promote sustainable development and elevate the overall well-being of Ajman’s residents. The recognition also sets a benchmark for future initiatives aimed at empowering youth and driving innovative projects in financial literacy and beyond.

The government aims to continue nurturing these initiatives and expanding their reach, recognizing that in a rapidly changing world, the youth must be prepared to face uncertainties with the right tools and knowledge. This aligns perfectly with Ajman’s vision to enhance community participation and involvement among young citizens, thereby paving the way for a brighter and more prosperous future.

Conclusion

The success of the “Future Wallet” program is not just a win for the Department of Finance but for all of Ajman. By investing in the youth through education and skill-building programs, Ajman is setting a precedent for other Emirates. As the community comes together to celebrate achievements in cultural education, the hope is to cultivate a society that values financial literacy and empowers individuals to achieve their personal and communal goals.

As we look forward to more initiatives like this, it’s clear that Ajman is not only focused on immediate gains but also on creating an informed and vibrant future generation.
