The CAP team, together with the local church, walks alongside people throughout their 2-to-4 year journey out of debt.
Each journey enables families to build financial resilience and find hope. And doors open for people to start strengthening their relationships — with money, themselves, others and God.
👩👦 Sarah says, “My cheeks are hurting from smiling so much! Now as a mum: driving to the beach, not having to worry about getting gasoline… I get to create a loving home. I think that’s what any mum or dad wants. Especially bringing the Lord into my life as well. I can’t stop smiling.”

CAP’s approach is proven to be effective
CAP never pays a dollar of clients’ debt – it’s clients who do the hard work of keeping to a budget & making repayments.
As people establish a pattern of savings families become financially resilient — able to weather life’s storms and set goals for the future.
CAP takes a ‘with Jesus’ approach that cares for the whole person. This is made possible by CAP’s partnerships with 150 local churches.
