Vision Credit Education, Inc.

Vision Credit Education has received the Give Back Monthly Giveaway for February, courtesy of the Triangle Gives Back initiative. Vision was chosen among the Triangle area nonprofit organizations that frequently update our community events.

Triangle Gives Back is an initiative of the Triangle Community Foundation, one of the fastest growing community service foundations in the Carolinas. What truly makes TCF unique is that they assist individual donors with planned giving while providing the oversight and accountability to ensure that those funds are being spent in a responsible manner to achieve the donor’s goals.

While the $250 grant itself is unrestricted, it will directly support our financial literacy efforts. Many of our clients are currently taking advantage of the free tax preparation through our Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program.

We are finding that approximately 10% of our free tax clients are also taking advantage of a free budgeting session with a financial counselor, getting help with debt problems or getting started in our pre-purchase housing counseling program. We thank Triangle Community Foundation and their Triangle Gives Back initiative for the support they have shown in our programs. Thank you!
