About MoneyMob Talkabout

MoneyMob Talkabout is a majority First Nations led not-for-profit organisation providing financial counselling and capability casework, financial literacy and energy efficiency education and community development programs. Additional cultural governance comes from an Anangu advisory board embedded in our organizational structure. We are funded to deliver services to Anangu in Adelaide, the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in northern South Australia, and in the Northern Territory.

Our Values

These values guide all aspects of our work including our service delivery, advocacy, governance and management.

COURAGE: We are committed to advocating strongly for change and creating a more just and inclusive environment.

EMPOWERMENT: We work to support First Nations people to be in control and work towards achieving independence, rights, opportunities and recognition of the inherent value of their culture and communities.

INTEGRITY: Honesty, openness, accountability, fairness and inclusiveness must be at the core of everything we do and are.

INSIGHT: Our actions and services are grounded in our organisational knowledge, evidence and ethics; the wisdom of the people, organisations and communities working alongside us; current thinking and research about what works nationally and internationally.

INNOVATION: We are a creative and agile organisation, motivated to continually improve, adapt and develop innovative solutions that add value and are valued by the communities we work with.
