Money Talks

Moneycare’s unique financial literacy education program, “You’re the Boss”, has been written in a readily understandable, conversational English format.

The program strives to portray key messages in an empowering and engaging manner. We work on the basis that workshop participants, if given the opportunity and information, can independently and competently manage their own financial affairs.

The overall program has the following sections:

  • Creating new money habits
  • Why a budget needn’t be scary
  • How to pay the bills on time
  • Sorting all those papers
  • Insurance that’s right for you
  • Making credit work for you
  • Don’t get down over debt

Please note that workshops can be tailored to include the sections that work best for your needs.

An important part of our service is workshop preparation, where we liaise with your organisation to tailor workshops to your needs, and assist with internal promotion.
