Invest in literacy.

Invest in their future.

Zeke & Maya is an animated financial literacy program empowering students in grades 2-8 with the knowledge and confidence to make smart money choices for life.

We are building a movement to make financial literacy early, engaging, and equitable for every child.

THE CHALLENGE WE'RE SOLVING

Too many students grow up without the financial skills they need to build a stable future.

By age 7, kids are already forming money habits that can last a lifetime. We believe every child — regardless of background — deserves the chance to learn, understand, and thrive.
