Budget buddies!

Would you like to help others?

Do you have experience and knowledge of administration and finance?

Then be a budget buddy!

What does it mean:

You help people who have (impending) financial worries. We believe that if you do it together, you will get ahead. Because everyone is resilient and contributes to recovery.
