How Alajo is Changing Lives: The Story of Mrs. Risikat

At Alajo, we believe in the power of small changes to create significant impacts. One inspiring story that embodies this belief is that of Mrs. Risikat, a dedicated mother striving to provide her son with a better future.

For many low-income families, education is a vital investment, yet financial barriers often make it challenging. Mrs. Risikat faced this struggle firsthand. Each month, she found it difficult to pay her son's school fees, which amounted to $22 every four months. Often, she resorted to loans and credit lines just to make ends meet.

However, with Alajo’s personal finance solutions, Mrs. Risikat discovered a transformative way to manage her finances. By saving just $0.60 from her daily earnings, she could accumulate $75 over four months. This small change not only allowed her to cover her son's school fees but also enabled her to buy essential books and consider enrolling him in a better school.
