OUR WORK | Financial Education
Twaweza Initiative offers personalized assistance to help immigrants, the francophone community and the economically-disadvantaged individuals and families understand tax obligations, claim eligible benefits, and file their taxes accurately and on time, ensuring compliance with the Canada Revenue Agency.
Twaweza Initiative is an open platform that guides immigrants on managing their finances, covering topics such as banking, budgeting, saving, and avoiding financial fraud. Participants learn how to build financial security, reduce unnecessary expenses, and make informed financial decisions for long-term stability.
Immigrants often face challenges in establishing or re-establishing their credit-worthiness. This service provides workshops and one-on-one support to help individuals understand credit reports, debt repayment strategies, and responsible borrowing, therefore, empowering them to have good financial management.
Immigrants looking to start businesses can receive professional training, mentorship, and access to other important skills that could help them develop business plans, and navigate Canadian business regulations. The program aims to increase the number of successful immigrant-owned businesses, contributing to economic growth.
