Generousity
I received an exceptionally generous gift for our fundraising campaign for our new start up company yesterday. My uncle’s reply to my thank you email was simply that it gives him joy to help people. The best reward for him was that we keep up our good work.
It gave me a lot to think about, especially since I’ve been feeling particularly anxious about money lately due to familial reasons.
I’ll definitely pay this forward. And more hopefully.

We still need your support! Please find our campaign here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1846256049/nikweli-getting-youth-hired-in-tanzania
Our social enterprise, Nikweli, is a people bank; not a job bank. We connect 850,000 new labour market entrants every year to employers in Tanzania via mobile.
We are selected as 1 of top 40 candidates (out of 400+ in the whole of Africa) for DEMO Africa 2014. See you on stage in Lagos in September!
