At the first session of the day at the Manchester Regional Gathering we heard from Vanessa Northam and Tom Williams from StepChange Debt Charity about how organisations can better support their customers in debt. Great discussions around the room about what members are currently doing that works, and areas which can be challenging #collaboration #supportingcustomersindebt

We don't lend in America, but here are some lenders we're happy to recommend: 👉🏼 Kiva: They lend directly in the USA only at zero interest (Kiva's microloans in other countries are done through Kiva's partners who charge an average of 26% all the way up to 81%). Note: Kiva USA does have some peculiar requirements. 👉🏼 International Association of Jewish Free Loans (IAJFL): There are 43 affiliated lenders across the United States. Some locations lend to non-Jewish borrowers. 👉🏼 Grameen America, Inc.: They don't lend at zero, but they are a nonprofit organization that strives to make affordable loans. I think rate is 12%. Note: You'll have to find a group to co-borrow with. This list is embarrassingly small considering there are 9500 banks and credit unions in the United States! 🙈 Is there anyone else on that should be on this list? #microfinance #nonprofit #smallbusiness

We are providing £500,000 to Citizens Advice County Durham to continue supporting its work to help residents dealing with a range of issues. A further £100,000 has been pledged from our UK Shared Prosperity Fund allocation to help residents affected by the ‘cost of living crisis’. A similar project, delivered in 2023 by Age UK County Durham, Citizens Advice County Durham, Durham Christian Partnership and East Durham Trust, resulted in those supported being a total of £3.2 million better off thanks to additional benefits and debt management solutions. The funding is part of a raft of support we provide to the voluntary and charity sector in recognition of the invaluable services it offers to residents. Other recent grants include: • £80,000 to Durham Christian Partnership to provide debt advice to residents. • £83,600 to Age UK County Durham to support with activities linked to cost of living. • £36,400 to East Durham Trust to provide financial wellbeing and debt advice.

Why should paying off debt be a financial goal? There are lots of reasons, but none is more compelling than the freedom that you’ll get to focus on what’s important. Being debt free will allow you to focus on what truly matters to you--including providing financial support to a friend or family member who needs a helping hand or donating to charities or nonprofit organizations you care about. Giving back is a great way to increase your own happiness while supporting your community. Would you travel the world?
