The Bank Account Financial Literacy Program was created to bring financial literacy education through 21 Savage’s Bank Account Program to a national audience. In its first year, students across the country completed over 8,000 financial literacy courses through the program, spending nearly 1,140 learning how to increase their money moves.

“I’m proud to be the first rapper to offer financial literacy education programming and glad to team up with Chime to help students build a stronger financial future,” said Savage. “That was something I didn’t have until later in life, so I want to help kids avoid the mistakes I made at their age.”
