Debt busting work
We coordinate Logan’s Done with Debt campaign to prevent Logan residents from getting into debt through the rental of appliances, computers, phones or furniture.
The campaign talks about the true costs of rent-to-buy arrangements.
In 2019, we united with government agencies and local community groups to stage Logan’s first Deal with Debt Day.
