Flag Financial Literacy Awareness Day (FAD) 2021 focused on 'Destination Moolah', a travel-themed virtual event held on 14, 15, 21 & 22 August 2021, where participants travelled around the World to the Five Wonders of the Financial World! Held on Kumospace, an interactive virtual platform participants collaborated together to complete various missions at each location, learning important financial literacy topics such as Savings, Budgeting, Investment, Needs vs Wants and Passive Income.

Missions ranged from simple crossword puzzles and word matches, to more challenges games. Taking inspiration from games such as Game of Life that was infused with FinLit elements, participants had to discuss and make financial decisions as they advance through various stages of life, learning about concepts such as budgeting and debt management.
