Savings group Kisa kya Mukama in Uganda, collaborating with Akeyo
Saving for Prosperity in Uganda
At Akeyo, we start with the proven power of savings groups and add what farmers need to thrive. Our "Savings Group+" model adds access to high-yielding seeds, essential tools, and practical video training to move groups from savings to transformation.
​
The Akeyo Effect: Stronger Savings, Thriving Farmers
Since launching in May 2024, our approach is already yielding results:
​​
-
250+ savings groups strengthened
-
70+ local agents equipped and earning
-
For the first time, high-yielding quality seeds and quality organic fertiliser are locally available
​​​
Agents report their groups are more unified and financially stronger. This is the foundation for lasting change.

Hassan Kato is a farmer and group member in Uganda. A loan from his savings group and support from Akeyo allow him to grow high-yield green pepper.
A New Model for Development
Our method is different. The end goal is a sustainable social enterprise, not a temporary project. We combine field-level innovation with a unique "Accountability by Sales" principle that ensures our work is always driven by farmers' real needs.

Partner With Us to Build the Future of Farming
We are grateful to the FAHU Foundation for their visionary support in launching this work. Their trust has enabled us to prove our model works.
We have many plans for our next chapters of innovation and scale. If you believe in building sustainable, community-led solutions, we would be honoured to explore a partnership.
