Prosper Canada is working with a national network of partners to assist Canadians who are struggling to make ends meet to achieve greater financial stability. We are excited to be collaborating with Interac alongside other partners to expand community-based financial help services that are proven to help Canadians improve their financial wellbeing and confidence,\u201d said Elizabeth Mulholland, CEO, Prosper Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funds will be raised through interactive installations at the festival that will allow Elevate attendees to tap their <em>Interac<\/em> Debit card or mobile wallet to donate directly to Prosper Canada. Interac is matching all donations made at Elevate Festival, up to $50,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs an organization that helps more than 30 million Canadians move their money and verify themselves safely and securely, we are committed to supporting our local communities,\u201d said Daria Hill, Vice President, Marketing &amp; Communications at Interac. \u201cWe are proud to partner with Prosper Canada to give Canadians access to the tools, resources, and coaching they need to build the financial skills that will help them confidently seize economic opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to raising funds, Interac is proud to be the presenting sponsor of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__http:\/ElevateFestival.ca\/nft-gallery__;!!BupLon6U!qe2PXtpMZfoSDItcgnkVA_LcVVqcoIZxXTI7XupW9X9iYaBYcc5PJE-Frk9esvVrgaHGLb8EK1J9jbLACFFB3Q$\">NFT Art Gallery<\/a> at the Elevate Festival.
