In a bid to provide further support its customers affected by the Victorian floods, La Trobe Financial has announced that it will be extending its $1m Disaster Relief Fund.
The fund allows eligible customers to access a $2,000 grant for the purpose of clothing, food, and temporary accommodation.
La Trobe Financial is also offering struggling customers with options to defer their loans, reduce mortgage repayments, and switch to interest-only terms.
Furthermore, La Trobe Financial can make easier arrangements for customers to access their investments in the La Trobe Australian Credit Fund.
Greg O’Neill, president of La Trobe Financial, said the past 12 months have been challenging for many Victorians who were affected by the recent storms and floods.
“We should never let this stop our Australian generosity and responsibility to care for others less fortunate. We will continue to look out for our customers and support those most in need and help them rebuild their lives as quickly as possible,” he said.
Customers can reach out to La Trobe Financial by calling its dedicated Hardship Assist Team 1800 620 639.
