What is debt consolidation?

Debt consolidation combines eligible unsecured debts into a single, structured payment—without taking out a new loan. Through a nonprofit Debt Management Plan:

Make one monthly payment to the program.
We work with creditors to reduce interest and waive certain fees.
Focus on repayment and stability, not new borrowing.

Why consolidation makes sense in Chula Vista

If high interest and scattered due dates are blocking progress, consolidation can restore control—whether you live near Third Avenue Village, Eastlake, Otay Ranch, or neighborhoods throughout the South Bay.

Who we help

Consolidation may fit if you’re managing:

High-interest credit cards
Collections or charged-off accounts
Payday loans that renew or roll over
Medical bills and other unsecured debts

“Money Fit turned five bills into one payment I can set on autopay. The rate cuts helped my balance finally drop.” — Sofia, Chula Vista

“Our counselor built a plan around our paycheck schedule. Late fees stopped and we’re catching up.” — Marco, Chula Vista

How our program works

1. Free conversation — a certified nonprofit counselor reviews your income, expenses, and debts.

2. Personalized plan — if consolidation is a fit, we design a budget-friendly payment schedule.

3. Creditor proposals — we work directly with creditors to request lower interest and fee relief.

4. One payment, ongoing guidance — you make a single monthly payment and receive support through completion.

When to consider consolidation

Minimums are getting paid but balances aren’t moving
Frequent late fees or juggling due dates
Payday loans are crowding out essentials
You want a structured, nonprofit path to become debt-free

Isabel’s step forward in Chula Vista

Isabel splits shifts between retail and delivery. When gas and groceries climbed, she covered gaps with two store cards and a buy-now-pay-later plan. A dental bill tipped the balance.

After meeting with Money Fit, she consolidated eligible debts into one monthly payment. Her counselor sent proposals requesting reduced interest and waived fees through a Debt Management Plan. No new loan required.

They also walked through her budget together, building a plan that balanced rent, food, and fuel costs with her new single payment. Isabel paused new credit use and set up a small $200 cushion to avoid future setbacks. Her counselor encouraged her to use simple spending categories she could track weekly. “For the first time in months,” she said, “I can see where my money is going.”

A few statements later, interest costs eased and payments started cutting into principal. With autopay set, budgeting became simpler and the stress lifted.
