Saving Checklist at MKKSACCO.                                                                       

No matter where you are in life, it’s never too late to make saving a priority.                                       The first step on your savings journey should be to open a savings account and begin setting aside a portion of your pay as an emergency fund.                                                                                               While your savings goal will vary depending on your earnings and expenses, having roughly six months of living expenses saved up is ideal.                                                                                              Start with a smaller goal of saving a given sum of money regularly and keep building on it.         Saving:  The earlier you start saving, the more time your money has to grow.

 Use the checklist below to make sure you’re on the right track Start saving.                                           If you haven’t begun to build your savings, your primary goal should be to initiate a savings plan like investment or Retirement . Create a budget.                                                                                             Start by creating a budget for you to see where opportunities for additional savings may lie.               If you make managing your money a priority now, saving for the future will be simple.                   Manage your debt.                                                                                                                                            Try as much as you can to pay off what you owe and don’t take on any new debt.                           Once you’re out of the red, consider putting the money you were using to pay off your debt toward your savings goals.                                                                                                                                          Build an emergency fund. Set aside some cash for emergencies so you aren’t tempted to.

Education and Sensitization Through mobilization and sensitization MKK SACCO has been able to grow and become the biggest SACCO in the community. 

MKK SACCO strongly believes in educating its members all the time, and since learning is a gradual and continuous process , MKK SACCO always sends teams at least twice a year to meet its members within and outside the community.

And it’s a duty of all staffs and manager to guide and give knowledge to members whenever they seek it.

During mobilization and sensitization exercises members are educated in areas related to financial literacy, importance of saving, entrepreneurship skills development and many other areas


 MKK women's group: This Women group is under Munaku Kaama SACCO, majority of these women are in the SACCO and some make their products using the money they borrow from the SACCO whereby it is marketed by their marketing manager and trainer, Nakimwero Catherine. Some of the products, the SACCO buys for material for the women and the women make the products and they are paid labour. This group was started inorder to improve the welfare and the living standards of the women inorder for them to pay school fees for their children, food, and medication, this has helped alot because most of the women in the group are in position to do that. It has got a small committee whereby Nakimwero Catherine the chairperson, Namugga Ritah is the secretary and Aunti Nalongo is the treasurer.

So these are the samples of the items which the women make.
