A FinMango Bite is a bite-sized lesson, fun fact, or tip on a variety of money topics that are shared on Twitter and Instagram. See some examples of bite$ that have already been posted here for inspiration:
https://twitter.com/finmango_bites and
https://www.instagram.com/finmango_bites/. Bite$ also include a link to dive deeper or learn more, commonly in the form of a Mango Story (
https://stories.finmango.org/) or one of our FinMango Digital Tools (
https://finmango.org/#education).
Why did we start FinMango Bite$ in the first place??? A few reasons:
- Our FinMango volunteers have a lot of financial literacy knowledge, money knowledge, and tips to share! We wanted to create a platform for us to share this info in a bite-sized way.
- Serves as a platform where everything posted is educational and FUN.
- Striving to create a culture where learning bite-sized things to become more financially literate daily is not so daunting. This is helpful for young people and beginners.
- By making bite$ a social media platform, we are meeting people where they are.
- Over time as Bite$ grows and we deliver quality content, it can help us increase our FinMango reach via social media.
Now, we are asking YOU to submit some bite$ for our team to post! Please be creative and have fun with this because that will be what make FinMango Bite$ a success in the long run! Also, by submitting FinMango Bite$, you are in the running to win some FinMango Swag! 🤑👕🔥 🥳. Details coming soon via email.
Please aim for your FinMango Bite to be 280 characters long max including emojis and #hashtags because this is the length of a tweet. However, do not stress if your bite is longer! We can always post a thread.
