Relief Fund

Our Relief Fund is for anyone with a financial need. Often we know of people who are doing it tough. Maybe someone you know has lost a job, their family is in crisis, they have a family member in hospital or they’ve had an emergency come up. Whatever the reason we want to help!

With nearly half of all Kiwis living without a budget, the CAP Money course is a fantastic tool that equips people with essential money management skills. At its core, the CAP Money course helps people put money in its rightful place in their lives—it gives a budget, a framework to live within, and sound principles that will help them wisely manage their money.
