Non-Profit Means Putting People First

This year alone we will assist about 70,000 consumers through our credit counselling and educational services, which are available to all Canadians regardless of income level or employment status.

As a non-profit agency, our mission is to put people first, and we have stood by that rule as we have grown from one small office in Toronto into a national organization. Today, our debt consolidation and financial education programs benefit individuals, families, and communities everywhere.

Our contact person at Credit Canada was Randolph Taylor and I can say without a doubt that we could not have received better professional help than we did. Randolph has a very calm and assuring manner about him which put me and my wife at ease right from the start. He made it very easy for us to have what would have been an awkward and even an embarrassing conversation. Randolph is an extremely gifted listener, has an eye for detail and I trusted him from day one. Besides his personal traits and demeanour, Randolph has very sound knowledge of the industry. He was able to provide to us all the options available along with his suggestions based on his experience. If you are contemplating getting financial advise/ budget management skills, I highly recommend Credit Canada. I've only dealt with Randolph but if thats any indication of the rest of the team, you'll be in safe hands. Thanks for everything Randolph, my wife and I are very grateful.

I had a great service with Credit Canada. They really listened to our needs without judgement and found a solution and did not pressure us into anything. At the end of the day it was fully our choice and I appreciated that it didnt make us feel bad about our situation. Thank you again for your great help!

I would highly recommend anyone with money management and debt concerns contact CCDS. As a non-profit with charitable status they offer honest advice and solutions that only benefit their clients. No hidden agendas, very personable, and highly qualified.

Meaning Found

At a time when I was running out of options and looking for honest guidance in spring 2016, CCDS was there to explain the range of choices for me moving forward. Everyone I've encountered here has exceeded my expectations and is ready to continue working with me, a year later. If you've had financial problems, coming here will be one of your financial solutions.
