The Journey Doesn’t End Here. Let’s Keep Inspiring
Book Author: Keira I. Chang
Although my Gold Award project is complete, the mission continues. If you’d like to support this effort, my book is available on Amazon at cost, perfect for a Christmas gift or donating to your local school, library, hospital, or community center. Together, we can keep the ripple going.
Here’s to stories that teach, communities that uplift, and kids who dream big.

Smart Money Workshop for Kids!
Book Author: Keira I. Chang
Join us this Saturday from 3–4 PM at the Monterey Park Bruggemeyer Library for a fun and inspiring Smart Money Craft & Book Reading Workshop designed for children ages 5–10!
Keira will be reading her book that teaches kids the basics of saving, sharing, and spending responsibly —then crafting their very own Smart Money Cups to take home!
* Perfect for young learners
*Hands-on creativity
*Financial literacy made fun
Let’s build bright futures together—one coin and one story at a time. We can’t wait to see you there!

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN EXTENDED
Thank You, Karen & Stephen Chu and Erica Chang
Many of these children are immune compromised and can’t borrow books from libraries. Your generosity helps us send personal copies straight to their homes and hospitals—bringing comfort right to their bedside.
Let’s keep going. Every book makes a difference.
Welcome to My YouTube Channel
It’s official!
The Second Race – The Turtle and the Puppy: A Story About Money
is now published and available on Amazon!
This book wouldn’t exist without the love, encouragement, and generosity of our incredible supporters.
For every $25 donated, your name will be added to the book and you’ll receive a copy as a thank-you gift—and if you’d like to donate your extra copies, we’ll be gifting them to children’s hospitals to spread joy and learning to young readers who need it most.
To all of you who believed in this project and helped with the Panda Express Fundraiser: THANK YOU!. You helped bring a story of resilience, teamwork, and financial empowerment to life. We’re so excited for what’s next—and we’re just getting started.
