Design it. Build it. Price it. Test it.

The Money Club.Org is a startup-style summer program where kids learn how money moves by building real products through guided sprints. Every dollar is visible. Students build, price, test, and improve a product or service.

This is the model:

  • kids learn financial literacy through radical transparency
  • mentors get meaningful paid work
  • families help kickstart a local feedback loop of learning, demand, and community value

Our problem statement: We are trying to prove that a small, transparent nonprofit can create real value for kids and meaningful work for University of Toronto student mentors.

The Money Club.Org is not a University of Toronto program and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the University of Toronto.

Learn how the one-week sprint works

Many kids already earn money in small ways: babysitting, tutoring, reselling things, or helping out around the neighbourhood.

The Money Club.Org takes that instinct further.

It is a one-week, startup-style program where students learn how money moves by building real product ideas through guided sprints.

Students research ideas, create prototypes, test concepts, and learn what happens when an idea meets the real world.

That is how they learn:

  • what makes something valuable
  • how pricing works
  • how costs and margins add up
  • why some ideas hold up — and others do not

This is financial literacy, design thinking, and AI applied in practice.
