About Us
Siddhi Tandon
Founder
Siddhi Tandon is a high school junior passionate about the fact that understanding money young can change lives. Her experience of working a job and not knowing how to deal with the money she earned led her to explore and learn about financial literacy on her own. Now, she hopes to share this message with youth through a variety of ways. Aside from financial literacy education, Siddhi loves playing the clarinet and swimming.

Our Mission
From Youth, for Youth. A Worthy Cause is a youth led initiative on Financial Literacy with a mission to spread financial awareness among youth. Young Americans (18-29) owe $1.1 trillion in debt. 73% of millennials lives paycheck to paycheck. Research shows that individuals with financial literacy are more confident in managing their finances, leading to financial self-efficacy. With financial literacy skills, we can build a generation of financially confident youth creating better opportunities for themselves and their communities. Join us, spread the word, donate or learn! You can help in the mission just by spreading awareness and realizing the importance of financially literate youth.
