ADIG financing schools

As well as financing large building projects in schools and parishes, ADIG provides concessional financing of plant and equipment for parishes and schools in our Diocese.

Parishes and schools can borrow funds at a current rate of only 6.00% over terms ranging from 12 months to 5 years. Loans can be taken out for playground equipment, computers, photocopiers and other office equipment, sporting equipment, even carpet. A $5000 loan taken over 2 years will cost just under $300 in total interest. There is a significant saving as well as flexibility for schools and parishes compared to other forms of finance.

St Patrick’s primary school in Walcha recently purchased a new photocopier using Plant and Equipment finance from ADIG.

The application process is simple for schools and parishes and there are no establishment or application fees with any ADIG loans. Application forms are available in the school and parish section of the ADIG website or by contacting John Hyde or Adam Green on 6765 9256.

Your deposits makes this and all the other services we provide to schools and parishes possible!

    and Your Security

To enable better service, the company that hosts ADIGonline has now set up two web addresses for the login page from the link on our website. This is so that if there is a large number of users on one you will automatically be directed  to the other so the service is quicker.

There is no need for you to do anything other than be aware of this.

However it is a good time to restate some basic security principles:

• Never go to our login page from a link in this or any other email - use the link on our website.

• Retype our home page web address or select it from your favourites when you are using ADIGonline.

• Change your password regularly and use a combination of letters, numbers and other characters.

• Use and update virus protection on your computer.

Upgrade of ADIGonline
