Hazina Microfinance Makes An Entry To Kwale County
In a bid to increase impact in the coastal region, Hazina Development Trust Limited makes an entry to a new market in Kwale County making it the 3rd county in the Coastal region to operate in after Kilifi and Mombasa Counties. Kwale County is located in the South Coast of Kenya, it borders the Republic of Tanzania to the South West and the following Counties; Taita Taveta to the West, Kilifi to the North, and Mombasa to the North East. Even though Ukunda is considered the largest town in the County; Hazina Development Trust Limited has set up office at Msambweni where majority of the poor resides and is inline with the goals of the organization. The Msambweni Office also serves other constituencies like Kinango and Matuga. The majority of the population in Msambweni are muslims and have long been kept out of financial system as there was no institution which could serve them as per their Islamic faith. On opening the office, Hazina received overwhelming support from the locals who have provided the below testimonial to the management of the branch office. Just wanted to say that we have long been looking at financial institution where we would be able to access credit facilities which are in line with our Islamic faith and now we are happy that Hazina has come to our place and its able to serve us well. We the Kwale people are so grateful for hearing our call and we shall do many more things together. Asanteni Sana! Hazina is now planning to venture the remaining 3 counties in the Coastal region so as to achieve its objective of serving the whole Coastal region.
