Mary MacKillop Today promotes financial inclusion and offers fair and equitable credit to people with low incomes. Mary MacKillop Today now offers No Interest Loan Schemes across Australia with offices across the Central West.

In addition to providing access to microfinance, the Mary MacKillop Today’s Financial Inclusion Program also helps build people’s financial literacy, provides access to government funded energy efficient product subsidies (when available), advocates for people on low incomes when required and also refers clients to other services and programs where additional needs are identified.

What is NILS?

Mary MacKillop Today’s No Interest Loan Scheme (NILS) is an accredited program that was developed by the Good Shepherd Sisters in 1981. The loans do not attract interest and there are no fees. Borrow up to $2000 for essentials such as appliances or furniture, to help you get your car back on the road, pay for education fees and equipment or help you cover the cost of goods and services to support your wellbeing. Borrow up to $3000 for housing related expenses such as bond or rent in advance, or for recovery from a natural disaster.
