Where does it end ?

Kahawa Pesa

Ugima Foundation provides a platform for coffee farmers to create wealth through a unique coffee beans savings model. Farmers save a few kilos of their beans every harvest and upon attaining a certain threshold, they are eligible to borrow from the pool. Regular savers are able to borrow inputs for their farm production
