How do I begin?

For a smooth application process with a positive breakthrough in your financial challenges, you will need to share with us information such as your assets, liabilities, income and other available resources. All such information will be treated with strict confidence.
Begin with an open mind and explore what available alternatives there are to resolve your current financial challenges. Your walk towards your possible financial freedom could just be a few steps away!

1. Complete the application form and email or mail to the Project Help Team (Financial Counselling) for processing. Physical copies are also made available at our Bukit Panjang or Woodlands centres on Sundays.

2. If you have indicated on the form that requesting financial counselling is your top priority or only situation, we will contact you within 14 days for you to complete a Detailed Needs Form. This is essential for us to conduct an initial assessment of your current situation.

3. Before the counselling session, we would suggest that you attend a presentation on Financial Freedom. Such a presentation will allow you and the assigned counselor to have a common ground of understanding for effective session(s) to follow thereafter.

4. After that, a Financial Counsellor from the Project Help team will discuss your situation with you in details. The assigned counsellor will assist you in prioritizing your financial issues and identify the most appropriate course of action. Further follow-up sessions may be required as and when necessary for a desired solution.
