Care Inc. provides a microfinance scheme for paid workers

Are you in paid work and need to borrow money for items such as new tyres, fridge, laptop or car repairs?
Care Inc. has been providing a microfinance scheme since 1997. With funding from the ACT Government, we have expanded our program to provide loans to individuals earning up to approximately $60,000 gross per annum. The No Interest Loans Scheme (NILS) provides those eligible to access loans to purchase items such as:
* white goods (fridges, washing machines, dryers, dishwasher)
* household items (oven, bedding, lounge, dining table, rugs etc)
* electronic goods (laptops/computers, televisions)
* tools for training courses
* health aids
* car repairs/ new tyres
* heating/cooling devices (portable or installed)
Loans of up to $1,500 are available and repayments are made over 12-18 months through direct debit. To be eligible for this scheme people must be a resident of the ACT and be on a low to moderate income and not be in financial hardship. (Please note - loans are for new items only and aren't available for rent or bills). For more information please call our office on 6257 1788 or email admin@carefcs.org or visit www.carefcs.org
