INFORMATIVE ARTICLE ON WORLD THRIFT DAY
ReplyDeleteAll over the world, October 31 is observed as 'World Thrift Day.' As its alternate name 'International Day of Savings' suggest, this is an important day to remember for each and every one of us. It is dedicated to the promotion of savings and how imperative it is to know more about the same. In India, this day is celebrated on October 30.
Saving money is a lesson we learn from our parents when we grow up to live on our own. The word 'Thrift' itself means to use our resources in a wise and careful manner, in order to not finish it all up at one go.
The idea and purpose behind the day are simple. Financial resources are not always found in abundance. Therefore, it is imperative to save money and raise awareness about the same. Brochures, leaflets, posters, etc. are distributed and showcased which talk about the importance of saving money. Campaigns take place in schools as well where children are taught about the same at a very young age, something they should remember when they grow up.
Not only that, World Thrift Day focuses on the financial security of the country as well. Banks play an all-important role on this day. They come up with methods with which they encourage people to be more mindful about their money and save it the right way. They are told about the savings account and its importance in great detail.
This day plays a huge in the financial growth of developing countries. As a majority of the people there are not able to avail the services of a bank, savings banks work with NGOs and other non-profit establishments to spread awareness about the same.
THANK YOU :-)
