Who We Serve

Liseli Initiative serves the vulnerable members of Livingstone Communities by empowering them in three major projects;

1. Financial Literacy: We train our beneficiaries on basic financial knowledge of how to generate, invest, save and manage their finances
2. Menstrual Hygiene: Liseli is supporting vulnerable women and girls with reusable sanitary pads. We make and distribute the pads to women and girls in the community.
3. Skills Training: In collaboration with other local NGO's , Liseli is training young people in different skills such as fish farming, metal fabrication, tailoring, weaving and computer skills.
4. Basic Literacy: We teach out of school children, women and men basic English speaking skills and numeracy. Most of the beneficiaries are school drop outs due to pregnancy and financial constraints.
