We provide FREE Financial Mentoring, Budgeting Advice and Budgeting education to the people of Hamilton.

Our team of financial mentors come from a broad background bringing with them both professional and life experience. All our Financial Mentors undertake a six-week Financial Mentor Introductory Course and Building Financial Capability mentoring training delivered by the FinCap with who we work in close partnership.

We provide free financial mentoring for clients, including individuals, families and whānau, to help clients deal with presenting crises and to help them develop a better understanding of financial management and develop skills to help them manage their finances effectively going forward to become financially capable.

We provide free budgeting education presentations in the form of workshops/programmes to a wide range of community groups.  This helps educate and develop skills in the community prior to crises situations, so they can improve their financial capability for life.

We provide assistance with Kiwisaver hardship withdrawals, Summary Instalment Orders, No Asset procedures and Bankruptcies in situations where there is no other viable alternative.
