Client Stories

Justina's Story

Why did you come to the Financial Empowerment Center?

I initially contacted the Financial Empowerment Center to increase my credit score, build my savings, and generally feel better about my finances.

open_in_full

What financial achievements have you made since coming to the FEC?

I have reduced my debt, built my savings, opened a high-performance savings account, and started the process of improving my credit score by taking out a credit-building loan.

Why and how has the FEC made a difference in your financial future and overall life? What has working with a Financial Coach done to help you, your family, etc.? What would you say to a friend or family member who was curious about how the FEC could help them?

Working with my financial coach has given me greater financial security and we have taken actions to better my financial future, such as taking out a small credit-building loan. With his guidance, I have put funds aside in a new high-performance savings account, which has increased my confidence about my current financial position. When telling people about the FEC, I tell them that my coach has been incredibly helpful and supportive and has introduced me to financial tools and resources I would not have found on my own.

Do you plan to continue working with your Financial Coach to achieve specific goals? What goals? How can the FEC help you achieve these goals?

Yes, I plan to continue to work with my financial coach to achieve my financial goals, which include building my savings, improving my credit score, and reducing my debt.
