PSPF HOSTS PUPILS FROM KAUNDA SQUARE SECONDARY SCHOOL AS PART OF 2024 PENSIONS AWARENESS WEEK ACTIVI
On
November 6, 2024, the Public Service Pensions Fund (PSPF) hosted pupils from
Kaunda Square Secondary School for an educational tour as part of Pensions
Awareness Week activities, being held from 4 to 9 November under the theme
"Empower Your Future: Dignify your retirement with Pension."
The
pupils, from grades 9, 10, and 11, were accompanied by their teacher, Mr.
Bannety Hamangaba. They toured various departments, including Pension
Administration and Investments, where they gained insights into the operations
of the Fund and its investments.
Through
presentations, the pupils learned that a pension fund does more than managing
pensions as it also strategically invests in projects to grow the funds for its
members.
As
part of the tour, the pupils also visited KK Mall on Alick Nkhata road in
Lusaka, a flagship investment of the Public Service Pensions Fund (PSPF).
This
experience left a strong impression, as the pupils expressed their gratitude to
PSPF for introducing them to the world of pensions and showing them that
retirement planning is not only for the distant future but something that
begins when one is employed.
