EBO Financial Budgeting App

Project Description:

Our team has been assisting EBO – Financial Education Centre, in developing a mobile Android budgeting application. EBO is a mid-sized non-profit organization that provides free financial guidance for individuals and families that face fiscal challenges in their daily lives. Using a pragmatic and compassionate approach, financial advisors at EBO aid their clients in relieving their financial stress. This is accomplished in a multitude of ways, including assisting their clients the opportunity to benefit from Government programs, and providing guidance with respect to managing a budget.
The requested solution by our client, EBO, involves providing a system that will allow EBO clients to track financial items in accordance with their circumstances. This system will be realized for the client by means of a mobile Android application. The idea is to deliver a system that will provide benefit to their clients who, at present, use android devices.
The purpose of this project is to allow EBO clients to track their financial items, and ultimately, share that information with their EBO financial advisor. Currently EBO is using an Excel spreadsheet to enter their client’s information.
In aiding EBO in the development of a mobile application, we will be providing benefit to their clients. EBO clients are often individuals of low income who feel a great deal of stress in coping with their finances. In a micro sense, the creation of our budgeting application aims to relieve some of that stress by provided a less intimidating, and easier way enter and share their financial information.
By making the process of tracking and sharing client financial information simpler, the barrier for clients to engage with EBO financial advisors becomes lower. This in turn, would allow more individuals to benefit from the services provided by EBO. Services which aim to assist struggling individuals to improve their financial wellbeing. The more individuals that seek assistance from EBO, the fewer individuals there will be in society that struggle with their finances. As such, from a macro perspective, this support from our team would play a part in contributing to the betterment of society.
At this juncture, our team has created an Android budgeting application that accomplishes the goals set at the outset of our project. We are thrilled to be able demonstrate our application, via the Re/Action Virtual Showcase, prior to deployment to our client, by the 13th of August 2021. Moving forward, we are excited to get our work in the hands of EBO clients, so they may realize the full benefit of our coordinated efforts with EBO.
