Malaizyo at it again, and this time, he’s bringing the crowd along for the ride. After working on this for a while, he’s finally rolling out Sonka a fundraising tool, that’s set to revolutionize how we handle contributions. And as the name suggests, it’s all about making things easier for us, especially when it comes to fundraising.
Think of Sonka like a locally grown version of GoFundMe but made specifically for Zambia. It’s designed to help you raise funds through both bank transfers and mobile money, so it’s all about keeping it local and accessible. It’s been in closed beta, but it’s open now to everyone, and the response has been incredible.
Sonka isn’t just for one group of people. It’s for everyone who needs to raise funds, whether you’re funding a school project, helping a friend with medical bills, or even supporting a small business. It’s perfect for:
-Individuals who need quick support for a personal cause.
-Small business owners looking for a way to fund a new project or expansion.
-Communities and organizations raising money for important causes.
-Event organizers putting together fundraisers for weddings, festivals, and more.
Basically, if you’ve got a cause that needs funding, Sonka’s got your back.
The crowdfunding scene in Zambia has always had its limitations. Platforms like GoFundMe are great, but they don’t always mesh with how we do things here, especially when it comes to payment methods. Sonka is all about fixing that. No more relying on services that don’t work locally or aren’t easy to use.
With Sonka, it’s simple. You raise money using methods you already trust and use every day (mobile money and bank transfers). Plus, it’s built to be user-friendly, meaning anyone can set up a fundraiser without getting stuck in the process. This platform is here to make crowdfunding more inclusive, especially for local projects that need support fast.
When you can crowdsource resources quickly, you can bring people together and make things happen. And that’s exactly what Sonka is designed to do. It’s local, it’s easy, and it’s about empowering people to support one another in real-time.
Now, raising funds for causes that matter to you and your communities is easier. Whether it’s medical bills, community projects, or business startups, Sonka has become the go-to for bringing those ideas to life.
Sonka is officially in its beta phase, but you can sign up and start using it right now. All you need to do is sign up here https://www.sonka.io/ and start exploring.
