Mohaira Elbadawi
Financial Services Professional & Financial Literacy Advocate

Personal Notes
My passion for spreading financial awareness stems from listening to the stories of various members of my community and all the ways they could have had an improved life quality if they’d made better financial decisions, especially the women around me. I took it upon myself to go on a journey of helping my society secure their basic dignities by making the rational financial decisions starting in their youth. Simultaneously, I intend to empower women to gain their financial independence.
