A New Path to Indigenous Financial Wellness in Calgary

True safety is holistic, and it includes financial freedom. Money is often used as a tool for control, but we can reclaim it as a tool for our liberation. If you are looking for a program focused on Indigenous financial wellness Calgary community members can trust, you have found the right circle.

The Aboriginal Friendship Centre of Calgary (AFCC) invites you to join the Future Builders Circle—a confidential, supportive space where we share practical tools to build a strong foundation for you and your family.

This is not a typical classroom lecture. It is a community gathering, designed to help you regain independence. We are proud to partner with national organizations like the National Association of Friendship Centres to bring this opportunity to you.


Who Is This Indigenous Financial Wellness Calgary Program For?

This circle is created for community members seeking a safe, non-judgmental path forward.

While our approach is grounded in Indigenous ways of knowing, we welcome anyone who is ready to:

  • Reclaim their relationship with money in a culturally safe environment.

  • Build stability and security after experiencing difficult times or instability.

  • Grow their skills to set themselves up for long-term financial success.

Whether you are looking to protect what you have or build something entirely new, you have a place in this circle.


Investing In You: Indigenous Financial Wellness in Calgary

We know that taking time for personal growth can be challenging. We believe that supporting Indigenous financial wellness in Calgary means removing the barriers that stop people from attending.

We Provide:

  •  Weekly Feast: A hot dinner is provided at 5:30 PM before every session.

  •  Transportation: We provide bus tickets or Taxi chits to ensure you get home safely.

The Future-Builder Bundle

We believe in investing in those who invest in themselves.

Participants who commit to their journey and attend all 4 sessions will be gifted a Future-Builder Bundle at the conclusion of the program. This is a significant package of tangible tools and resources specially selected to support your specific next steps—whether that involves securing your home, furthering your education, or entering the workforce.
