FINANCIAL COUNSELING

Balance

TWO WAYS TO OBTAIN FINANCIAL COUNSELING, BOTH FREE!

Our goal is to give you the tools necessary for you to become financially self-sufficient. Our hope is that these services will assist you in any way possible to meet your financial goals.

1. We partner with BALANCE, a confidential financial counseling and education service. This service, available by phone (and with many online tools as well), is FREE to our members!

2. Sometimes a friendly face makes discussing finances easier. You might choose to contact Alternatives' Financial Counselor instead of calling BALANCE because our Counselor:

  • is well acquainted with Alternatives' products and services and would be able to advise which of our services might help you find your way to financial fitness;
  • has knowledge of local community services to direct you to for assistance with financial matters;

    can help you:
    — determine financial goals
    — develop spending plans
    — help with credit repair
    — help with credit choices

Appointments can be made Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM by e-mailing Brendan Wilbur or calling him at 216-3445.

Help us help our community through the Alternatives Venture Fund

Aaron Lambert, Nutritional Wellness Center

In 2006 we had a vision of creating a wellness center that would be highly successful in helping people to achieve optimal health. We also wanted to connect as many people as possible with the wonderful locally grown food. The business loan and the Business CENTS program both allowed us to achieve our dream. A loan officer even came to visit our business some time later to see how we were doing.
