Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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 🪙💰🪙

0% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
0% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
0% ... It is complicated
