Good Shepherd Microfinance: Supporting Communities

Everyday life can be tough for the 3 million people who don’t have access to credit, transaction accounts or insurance¹.

Good Shepherd Microfinance is a not-for-profit organisation that offers no and low interest loans to people on low incomes, especially women, to enable them to bounce back from hardship.

We’ve been collaborating with State and Federal Governments, Good Shepherd Microfinance and over 160 community organisations in 625 locations. We’ve been working together to support thousands of people with no and low interest loans for household essentials like fridges – even small businesses have been helped.

Our goal is to support those who struggle to access simple banking products and services. That’s why we’ve invested in building these, along with resources and education, to help improve the financial health of all Australians.

We’re working together with our influential community partners to make a better Australia. We’re really proud to hero some of the amazing work that’s making a positive impact every day
