How the program works...

The Tiny Foxes will offer the Life Skills Academy digital course to members of your organisation. Accessible through a personalised landing page featuring your or your sponsors branding, the course provides students with the flexibility to learn essential life skills at their own pace.

It aims to support parents and caregivers in preparing their young person to handle financial matters, avoid debt, access necessary support, and navigate the administrative responsibilities of adulthood.

Our program is priced to maximise value. Normally, individual access to the course is $299 each. However, we provide highly competitive digital access to your members from as little as $50 each (depending on group volume). It’s our way of supporting the good work you already do in the community. 

We KNOW what a difference it can make to navigate your finances well from the beginning and avoid some of the mistakes that will cost in the long run. Beyond that we care deeply about getting this info into the hands of young people so they can fully capitalise on their potential. If you feel the same way, we would love to work with you to make this happen in YOUR community.
