This year marked a pivotal shift for Cashco. In 2022, we continued to draw from our unique history and key accomplishments while establishing a new chapter for the company. Our vision is to accelerate the narrative and reality of financial health for underserved Canadians, and we have formed the strategy that is going to get us there.

Through advancing financial health to our communities, we will transcend the current limitations and support the upcoming generations to dream without limits. To begin, we must meet people where they are at and walk with them toward the development of a foundation, encouraging them to set goals while helping them build the confidence and belief that they can be reached. It is with great honor that I lead this organization toward achieving our goals, and toward the development of a future in which millions of financially excluded Canadians can create and achieve lifelong aspirations.

With gratitude, I thank my team at Cashco for their determination in serving with empathy through all these years and in creating a strategy that is paving the way. I cannot wait for what is to come.

Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Delivering on Our Purpose

Our Commitment

Cashco leans on the following frameworks and standards for operating and in designing the emergence of a financially inclusive future. This is how we stay accountable in building value as a social enterprise:

United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) We are focused on advancing the nine SDGs that most directly relate to our industry and which we have outlined as having the most capacity to amplify impact in the near-term.

To Ending Financial Exclusion is our driving force, informing all of our decisions from our long-term business strategy, to how we design our client journey. Financial instability is a major source of stress, negatively impacting physical, mental, and social well-being.

Growing a client’s FinHealth score is how we increase stability and financial inclusion. To do this, we provide sensible products, resources, and support, designed to maximize client success in four key areas:

Social Enterprise

By operating with a Triple Bottom Line approach that considers the
three elements of people, planet, and prosperity, we think beyond
traditional financial measures, ensuring our business practices are
creating positive social and environmental outcomes, and that Cashco
is showing up as a social enterprise by carefully balancing the below
qualities:

IMPACT: measured by assessing the extent to which an organization
addresses social and environmental issues, including efforts to improve
the lives of people in the community, as well as its impact on the
environment.

SCALE: measured by assessing the size and reach of an organization’s
operations, including evaluating the number of people, communities,
and geographic locations that are impacted by the organization’s work.

SUSTAINABILITY: measured by assessing the organization’s ability to
continue its operations over time through an evaluation of financial
performance, the ability to adapt to changing circumstances, and to
maintain social and environmental impact.

FinHealth for All

When we talk about FinHealth, we’re referring to a foundation inspired by the Financial Health Network’s FinHealth Score® methodology.

A FinHealth score is a measure between “0” and “100”, is determined and tracked by completing assessments at regular intervals. We support our clients in tracking and improving their FinHealth score over time.
