Thanks to your support, our newest Community Health & Empowerment Clubs (CHECs) have finished financial literacy and are lining up their first income projects. Here’s where things stand:
Maugo – Community rice cultivation to begin soon. Table-banking groups have saved Ksh 40,000, targeting Ksh 60,000 to support small input loans.
Nyamokenye – Preparing to construct an apiary and start a beekeeping/honey venture. 15 members selected for training; 2 apiary sites identified. Table-banking capital at Ksh 82,550.
Kimuka – Infrastructure underway: watersheds complete and water pumped to tanks; toilets finished; new east–west coop under construction sized for 500 chicks; storage room renovation ongoing.
Soklo (Mfangano Island) – Diversified crops to begin soon (groundnuts, kale, maize). Teams have set roles for bed prep, planting, and shared maintenance.
Across the wider network, table banking is powering real momentum:
Nyamecheo sold Ksh 4,000 in vegetables/seedlings and leased an extra plot (2-year lease Ksh 8,000).
Nyamagesa harvested 79 tins of beans from maize intercropping (planted with Ksh 12,000).
Kanyamfwa (Cereal A) completed a second share-out: Ksh 178,970 in savings and Ksh 63,225 in interest; cereal profits of Ksh 55,200 being reinvested.
Every shilling saved and every beam raised is another step from learning to livelihood. Thank you for fueling community-led progress.
