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 🪙💰🪙

26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated

Fundraining for Bowl Cancer
Hi,
This February, I am taking part in Move your Butt for Bowel Cancer and will be conquering 200km for the 100 Kiwis who die from bowel cancer every month.
My goal is to raise funds for Bowel Cancer NZ to support patients, raise awareness and fund research to beat bowel cancer.
Please sponsor my challenge and support my efforts to save Kiwi lives.
