Saver Plus Program 

Helping take the stress out of back to school time

The Saver Plus community program has helped over 55,000 Australians take the stress out of back to school time. It’s free for eligible people to join. At Saver Plus, we pair you with a savings coach while you budget and save over the next 10 months. Learn tips, skills and receive information to grow your budgeting and savings skills. Once you reach your agreed savings goal, your savings are matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $500. You can use that money towards education costs such as uniforms, text books, laptops or extra-curricular activities such as sport or music. You could be eligible to join Saver Plus if you: • have a Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card • are at least 18 years old • have some regular income from work (you or your partner) including casual, part-time, full-time or seasonal (we also accept child support and carer’s payment as income) • have a child at school or attend vocational education yourself. If you’re eligible, start now and we’ll help take the stress out of next year’s back to school. To find out more, or to apply, go to www.saverplus.org.au or call 1300 610 355
