Most Aggressive In Members Mobilization New Rural Sacco
Joining Lato SACCO transformed my vegetable business completely. I started with a small loan of 30,000 shillings and now I supply three major markets in Mwingi. The Watano group gave me accountability and support I never had before. The interest rates are fair, and the staff treats us like family, not just customers. Today, my children are in good schools and my business employs two people. Asante sana Lato SACCO!
I had been saving informally for years with little to show for it. When I joined Lato SACCO in 2021, everything changed. The dividends on my shares were incredible, and within two years, I qualified for a development loan that helped me build two rental houses. The financial literacy workshops taught me investment strategies I wish I had learned years ago. Lato SACCO doesn't just keep your money safe—they help it grow.
As a widow and single mother, I struggled to get loans from banks—they always said I didn't have enough collateral. Lato SACCO believed in me when no one else did. My Watano group guaranteed my first loan, and I used it to buy farm inputs. My harvest doubled! Now I've repaid three loans successfully and I'm saving for my daughter's university education. This SACCO gave me hope and a future.
Before Lato SACCO, I was renting a bodaboda and paying almost 800 shillings daily. I heard about their asset finance loans and decided to try. Within three months of consistent savings, I got approved for a loan to buy my own motorcycle. Now I'm the boss! I pay my loan monthly, and all the profit is mine. The shade structures they built also protect us from the sun. These people truly care about our community.
What I love most about Lato SACCO is the personal touch. When I had challenges repaying during the drought season, they worked with me to restructure my loan instead of harassing me like other lenders. The staff knows my name, my business, and my family. The interest rates are the best in the region, and the mobile banking makes transactions so convenient. This is truly a SACCO for the people, by the people.
