“When Kinvest brought electricity to Gatebe, it was like a dream come true. That moment marked the beginning of a new chapter for me and my family.”

Jackson Dusabimana, a village leader and tenant at our Gatebe Market Hub, once faced the harsh reality of unemployment. Before Kinvest, Gatebe lacked electricity, making it nearly impossible for residents to run successful businesses.

Jackson recalls the moment he heard about Kinvest and the opportunities it offered in. He knew it was his chance to start a business and change his life. The affordable rent at the market hub made it possible for Jackson to open a salon.

Today, Jackson’s business is thriving. He has hired two workers to assist in the salon and can now provide for his family. With his business earnings, he covers school fees for his three children, pays for family insurance, and started a poultry farm.

As a village leader, Jackson expresses deep gratitude for the transformation Kinvest has brought to Gatebe. Before, people sold crops on the ground, vulnerable to the elements. Now, they have a covered market with electricity and access to clean water a safe and dignified space for everyone.

Looking ahead, Jackson plans to attend the Leader Development Program, inspired by the transformation he has witnessed in others. He is also an active member of two savings groups and aims to expand his business further using these savings.

Jackson’s story is a powerful testament to the life-changing impact of Kinvest’s initiatives. But there is more work to be done. Your donation can help us reach more individuals like Jackson, bringing sustainable opportunities to communities in need.
