The Jonathan Jackson Foundation (JJF), called in Nairobi City Stars players, members of the technical as well as management team, for a workshop themed “How to budget and manage debts”.
The seminar, held at the World Hope Centre on Tuesday 15 February 2021, handed the City Stars family vital tips on financial management which anchored on credit access.
The latest topic follows up on two others within the last four months where players were encouraged to venture into business and handed tips on how to save.
“The objective of the meet-up was to motivate NCS players and bench to adopt a budgeting habit and to be financially conscious when it comes to credit as this will make their financial goals achievable,” said Randy Ochieng, the JJF Business Development Manager who spearheaded the seminar
