Saver Plus is a free 10-month financial education and matched savings program. It helps people develop savings and money management skills, while saving for their children’s or their own education.

As part of the program, eligible participants:

• Work with their Saver Plus Coordinator to choose an education item to save for
• Attend virtual MoneyMinded financial education workshops to improve their money management skills
• Open an ANZ Progress Saver account and start to regularly save over 10 months
• Receive matched savings from ANZ for every dollar they save once they have completed the program (up to $500 for education items, such as school uniforms, computers and textbooks).

Saver Plus is a program developed by the Brotherhood of St Laurence and ANZ, delivered in partnership with Berry Street, the Smith Family and other local community agencies. The program is funded by ANZ and the Australian Government Department of Social Services.
