Thank you so much to those of you who partnered with us to reach our goal of giving $5000 to Opportunity International Canada. In fact, we will exceed our goal and raised $6000.
A gift of $25 can change a family’s financial situation by empowering them to start a business, feed their children, and send them to school ending the cycle of poverty forever for them and future generations. We are attracted to this organization because of the specific way that they work in the community, with individuals, to bring about lasting transformation.
Update #3 on Milestone 50/50 - Sept. 20th
We are currently 38% towards reaching our goal of $5000. Woot! Woot!
In 2019 95% of the loan recipients were women. Often in most third world countries, it is the women who stay home to look after children while the men go out to work. Women fail to get an education or receive the opportunities afforded to men. This organization is changing that pattern by empowering more women with the training, skills, and funds to start their own businesses. The result is better nutrition for their families and an opportunity for their children to attend and finish school. This new opportunity is ending the cycle of poverty in many communities around the world.
Update #2 on Milestone 50/50 - Sept. 16th
We are currently more than 10% towards reaching our goal of $5000. Woot! Woot! Hear what we like best about Opportunity International Canada in the video below...
Listen to this Remarkable True Story of What an Entrepreneur Can do When Given the Opportunity...
In 1990, 1.9 Billion were living in poverty worldwide. At the end of 2019, it was down to 650 million - reduced by 66%! They are predicting that the Covid-19 pandemic will set that number back 10 years! Let's not let that happen! It's a model that Opportunity International has been using for 49 years. It works!

If you are nearing retirement, newly retired, or well into that stage of life and need some honest, reliable financial advice and tax planning services, I highly recommend Willis and Nancy Langford at Langford Financial. I have been working with them since the fall of 2020 and am really happy I made the switch.
I needed much better advice than I was getting from my new bank rep as I was actively preparing for retirement. I found Langford Financial online and booked a review meeting. I was happy that I was sent a complete list of all the information that would be needed prior to my initial meeting so I arrived prepared.
From that initial meeting, I decided to have Willis prepare a retirement plan for me. After we reviewed everything he had prepared, I felt much more confident in what was to come financially during retirement and how I could manage it. That's when I decided to transfer my investment portfolio from my bank to Langford Financial so they could manage it with and for me. I felt they really had my best interests at heart.
It was a pleasant surprise that their approach combined both income planning for retirement and tax planning for both the immediate future and well into retirement. This has proven to be very helpful as it has ended up saving me a lot of money (a lot!) by using credits that had been missed by the company I previously used to prepare my taxes.
I really like working with Willis and Nancy. They are very quick to answer any questions I have and can accommodate virtual or in-person meetings based on what is needed. They also produce a regular newsletter that I really enjoy. It has lots of tips in it and some very good in-depth information that helps me make better decisions---or at least ask better questions!
Moving to Langford Financial was a great decision for me. It has lead to better financial planning and decision-making and much greater peace of mind for me at this time of life.
