About Us

The Person Behind GreenMint

Sufee Kathane — Founder of GreenMint
Sufee Kathane Founder & Creator, GreenMint

"Driven by curiosity, community, and a belief that students can shape the world."

I am a high school student passionate about sustainability, education, and the power of storytelling to create change. GreenMint grew out of a simple conviction: that financial literacy and sustainability aren't separate subjects — they're two sides of the same coin. When students understand money through the lens of the world they're inheriting, something clicks. That's the experience I wanted to build.
