"... Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people." (Isaiah 58:6)
Christians Against Poverty is a natioinal debt counselling charity which uses its unique and in-debth service to bring justice to those in need by releasing people from debt. In partnership with local churches, CAP seeks to relieve people from poverty so they can experience and respond to the love of Jesus.
In the UK debt is a major contributor to poverty as well as causing marriage breakdown, illness, fear or even suicide as people see no other way out.
But CAP offer a solution, they offer a way out. By going in to people's homes and dealing with them personally they address the financial, physical, spiritual and emotional well being of each of their clients. This completely free service relieves people of the stress and worry of dealing with multiple, complicated debts and allows them to have their lives back, released from fear.
CAP will work out a budget, creat a CAP account for the clients to make monthly payments into which is then redistributed to pay their debts, and intercede and protect them from aggressive and predatory creditors. CAP will then encourage and support them as they begin to pay off their debts, enabling them to re-enter a society previously hostile to them and their lack of resources, enabling them to live healthily on an affordable financial plan and enabling them to experience the love, grace and mercy of Jesus Christ who loves them and died for them.
At the end of this the client walks debt free, bound no more by the chains of poverty, free from oppression and often released from a greater debt than their financial ones - by knowing the saving grace of a loving God.
This is Christians, working Against, the oppression of Poverty. This is CAP.
