Participant Testimonials

  • “The Financial Freedom Project has helped me with my credit score and opening a savings account.”
  • “I needed clarification on things like savings accounts, interest rates and loans, etc. because I didn’t fully understand all the benefits of having a bank account. With the Financial Freedom Project, I have a sense of financial freedom and I now know multiple ways to save money.”
  • “This program (Financial Freedom Project) makes me thrive to want to do better. I wanted to do better with my money because I had no savings and I wanted to know how to do a budget. Now I have a savings account, I know how to make my budget, and now I’m saving to buy my first home.”
  • “When I began this program (Financial Freedom Project) I was backed up with rent ($3,000) and in debt with the IRS over ($1,200). Six months later both my rent is caught up and IRS is paid off! I learned how to manage my money, successfully juggle between paying of my debts, and manage to save my money. It has helped me to have a better understanding with my credit score and managing it.”
