A great non-profit organization that I recently found is "Pa'amonim". The organization helps people handle their money wisely, responsibly and in a balanced way. They believe that by doing so they will create financial and social robustness. The organization provides guidance and professional help to families that have financial problems. All the work is done by volunteers who are trained for this purpose.  I’ve added an article referring to ways to save money.
