Where are they today...?

Where are Mary and Steve now?

Two years ago, Mary Bouzan and her husband “hit rock bottom.”  They were $50,000 in debt. She and her husband turned to the Centers for Finance & Education for help.  Nine months later, during the NHFCU 77^th Annual Meeting, in March, 2019, Mary spoke in front of a crowd of 200 people. They’d already successfully achieved two of their biggest goals:

• Removing $11,000 of their total debt
• Moving into their own apartment after relying on family for some time. 
• Mary and Steve continued toward their goal of being debt free … “rock-bottom” is no longer!  Where are they today…?

•  They both purchased new vehicles.  A first time for “new” versus “pre-owned.”
• They closed on their first home the summer of 2020.
• They adopted two “furry” children.
• They have emergency savings.
• Mary became a Certified Financial Social Work Coach last summer.
• Mary was just promoted to Head Teller at NHFCU.
• Their dreams have become reality!
