Christians Against Poverty

Unverified non-profit organisation

Christians Against Poverty (CAP) is an international organization specializing in debt counseling for individuals in financial difficulty, including those in need of bankruptcy or insolvency.The organization works through a network of regional offices that work in partnership with a local Christian church. Individuals seeking the assistance of the charity give authority to the charity to negotiate with creditors, and the charity will then organize the individual’s finances with the objective of making them debt free within 5 years. The caseworker will create a sustainable personal budget for clients, prioritizing basic living needs and offering creditors fair, affordable pro-rata payments as far as this is possible. CAP also provides money education through the CAP Money Course. CAP currently receives no government funding, so relies on donations from individuals, churches, charities and trusts.
