As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!

25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
