A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode of The OpenHouse Podcast, hosts Ben Robitaille and Richard Thompson sit down with Mercedes Gidge, a passionate advocate for financial literacy and a key team member at Junior Achievement.

Mercedes pulls back the curtain on how Junior Achievement empowers students across the province by bringing real-world financial education directly into classrooms. From budgeting and saving to entrepreneurship and career readiness, she shares why these programs matter now more than ever — and how early financial confidence can shape a young person’s entire future.

We dive into the challenges students face today, the gaps in traditional education, and the inspiring impact JA has on communities across Ontario. Mercedes also talks about what drew her to the organization, the stories that keep her motivated, and how educators and volunteers can help support this mission.

Whether you're a parent, teacher, business owner, or someone who wishes you had been taught this stuff earlier in life, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
