Who We Are

ABOUT LEWMO SACCO


LEWMO SACCO was established in 2023 to serve individuals and groups seeking affordable financial services and sustainable ways to improve their livelihoods. While initially focused on supporting community members within Nairobi, LEWMO SACCO now draws members from diverse backgrounds across all sectors, including employed individuals, self-employed persons, youth and women groups, and community-based organizations.

The SACCO’s mission has remained clear—to provide a reliable savings platform, access to affordable credit, and a unique opportunity for members to earn through plastic recycling. LEWMO SACCO has grown into a transformative financial and environmental partner, with a growing membership base, innovative services, and a commitment to both economic and environmental impact.

LEWMO SACCO is a fully member-owned cooperative, and membership is open to all Kenyans, both residents and those living abroad. Individuals, joint groups (up to five people), and larger organizations can become members by fulfilling the simple registration requirements.

Membership is voluntary and inclusive, welcoming all who share our commitment to savings, environmental responsibility, and community growth. Upon admission, a member receives a membership number for reference, and three key accounts are automatically opened:

  • Share Capital Account – Reflects ownership and earns dividends.
  • Savings Account – For regular deposits and access to loans.
  • Recycling Wallet Account – Tracks and credits earnings from plastic sold through LEWMO’s buy-back program.

LEWMO SACCO continues to lead with innovation and purpose—enabling members to build wealth while protecting the planet.

​Our Strategic Plan

(2025–2030)

A Brief Intro

Why this strategic Plan, and what are the benefits of the plan

As part of our forward-looking mission to empower communities both financially and environmentally, LEWMO SACCO is rolling out a bold and comprehensive strategic plan for the period 2025–2030. This plan is designed to deepen the SACCO’s impact across five core pillars: microfinance integration, youth and women empowerment, digital transformation, environmental sustainability, and institutional growth.

The plan is aimed at the integration of microfinance with LEWMO SACCO operations. The strategy prioritizes support for micro-enterprises through startup capital sourced via member savings and low-interest credit facilities. It also includes the continued rollout of the plastic-for-savings scheme at buy-back centers, where 75% of the profits from recycled plastic are directed into youth savings accounts—empowering young people to save while contributing to environmental preservation.

Focus areas

We are committed to continuous improvement, regularly releasing updates and new features based on user feedback and technological advancements.

In addition to this, the 2025–2030 strategic plan focuses on:

  1. Youth and Women Empowerment – Expanding targeted financial education, mentorship, and group savings programs for women and young people to promote inclusive economic participation.

  2. Digital Transformation – Leveraging mobile and web platforms to enhance member registration, savings, credit access, and real-time tracking of plastic contributions and earnings.

  3. Environmental Sustainability – Scaling up recycling initiatives and forming partnerships with schools, local authorities, and private sector players to support eco-driven livelihoods.

  4. Institutional Strengthening – Improving SACCO governance, increasing transparency, investing in staff training, and expanding outreach to underserved regions.
