Community Outreach

Consolidated Credit brings financial literacy into communities across the country

Consolidated Credit Canada invests significant resources and countless hours providing free community outreach programs on financial literacy and debt management in communities across Canada.

Our educational and engaging workshops take place as either face-to-face, in-classroom seminars, or via the Internet through webinars. We work with hundreds of companies, community groups, employee assistance program providers, schools, all levels of government, the Canadian Forces, and non-profit organizations who have identified financial stress as a key component of their employees’ and members’ overall health and productivity.

Additionally we work with our community partners to provide online money management tools and resources to their members through our online financial wellness platform, K.O.F.E. (Knowledge of Financial Education). KOFE offers a user-friendly and versatile experience for learning about a variety of financial topics in both English and French. This includes a guided budgeting tool, interactive courses, and access to our KOFE coaches for help and guidance. Learn more at www.kofetime.ca.

Consolidated Credit educates consumers on the importance of good money management for today and the future. As a result, attendees learn about financial tools and skills in groups or individually to live debt free and financially independent. Furthermore, these educational initiatives have taken root in many organizations across the country. The response to the resources available has grown exponentially. That’s why we take a dynamic approach to educating Canadians through seminars, webinars, one on one face-to-face meetings, distribution of our specially designed booklets on financial literacy, and our KOFE platform. Clearly, we’re driven to put personal finance tools in the hands of people across Canada.

Consolidated Credit’s goal is to make this free, personal financial education and counselling available to those who may otherwise not have access. In addition, we strive to educate employers about the value of having budget-conscious, financially savvy, and confident employees. As research has shown, an employee stressing about debt and their family’s finances is more likely to be distracted causing them to be unproductive, or worse yet, accident prone in the workplace – and that’s where Consolidated Credit and KOFE can help. Our educational materials are available in common office areas, such as break and lunch rooms across the country, and online through an employer’s human resources and organizational development sites.

We are also committed to inspiring responsible money management through our scholarships and awards. In addition to the Consolidated Credit Canada Scholarship Program, in 2018, we established the Consolidated Credit Financial Empowerment Award at Seneca College — a $2,500 award for a non-graduating student with a GPA of 3.0 or higher, who demonstrates the impact the support will have on their educational career through responsible money management.

Here’s what people have to say about Consolidated Credit’s Community Outreach Seminars:

Our participants have stated the information learned has been invaluable, teaching them how to address their debts one at a time and helping to resolve them. Although people attending the workshops are experiencing extreme financial stress, they quickly feel at ease.

Christene R – Employment Services Supervisor, Simcoe, ON

A majority of our clientele are individuals who are currently homeless or at risk of being homeless. Moreover, most have a very limited budget, no credit, and don’t understand the basics and importance of a proper budget. Since 2012, Consolidated Credit runs 18 different seminars throughout the year for our program and the feedback from the clients is that they have learned a lot and now understand the importance of budgeting.

Ray R – Employment Manager, Newmarket, ON

Our youth participants have benefited tremendously from the sessions conducted by Consolidated Credit. As a result, their levels of awareness regarding money management, identity theft, credit and credit ratings naturally increase. Of course, we are grateful for this partnership and we have been recommending your services to other community-based groups.

Lance W – Program Administrator, Scarborough, ON

Our employees were very appreciative of the objective information. As such, information for the sole purpose of education, without the sales pitch at the end that can often come with a financial education presentation.

Robyn B – Corporate Wellness Advisor, Winnipeg, MN

Most of our clients are newcomer youth (ages 18 to 30) who have been in Canada for less than five years. Lexi’s workshop on budgeting, saving, registered savings accounts, and credit management is an incredible resource for them. Financial literacy sessions can sometimes feel dry, however Lexi’s workshop is anything but that. She delivers financial information in a clear, intuitive, and engaging way. The content is practical, relevant, and essential for anyone building a stable financial foundation in Canada. Her approach to topics like managing credits and debt was especially impactful—our clients left feeling both informed and empowered, with real tools to build financial wellness and face financial challenges. Overall, this is a thoughtfully designed and expertly delivered session that equips newcomer youth with the knowledge and confidence to build lasting financial health. We really appreciate it.

Loretta W – Youth Employment Job Developer, Oakville, ON

Consolidated Credit’s workshops have been so helpful for our youth clients! So many youths are confused on how to build their savings, or even how to budget. With the KOFE platform and Lexi’s workshops, the youth we work with have been able to access the resources, and knowledge needed to build a sustainable future for themselves. 

Debra B – Youth/Community Engagement Facilitator, JVS Toronto

Consolidate Credit has led Financial Education workshops for our program participants with outstanding results. Our students gave excellent feedback, emphasizing how engaging and interactive the sessions were.  The speaker Lexi Lin was respectful, listened carefully, and answered everyone’s questions with patience and care.

Amitha B – Program Coordinator, North York, ON

Anonymous participant feedback:

“Lexi made a topic that usually feels overwhelming really approachable. Her energy kept us all engaged, and she never rushed anyone—every question felt valued.”

“This was one of the best financial workshops I’ve attended. Lexi created a safe space where we could ask anything, and she always responded with patience and clarity. I left feeling informed and motivated.”

“I appreciated how Lexi explained things in a way that actually made sense to me. She really took the time to pause, listen, and answer our questions thoughtfully. You can tell she genuinely cares.”

“Before this session, I felt embarrassed about my finances. Lexi helped shift that mindset. Her support and honesty made me feel less alone, and more confident about taking the next step.”

“Lexi brought so much clarity and encouragement to a tough subject. She was incredibly kind and attentive throughout, and I walked away with practical tools I can start using right away.””

“It was an extremely professional presentation. There was no contempt for people in debt and there was plenty of encouragement to get on the right track.”

Feel free to directly connect with our team! We’d be pleased to continue our mission to help people in Canada with financial education and non-profit credit counselling support with your organization.
