JOYCE NJIHIA: MENTOR SACCO SAVED MY DAD
Joyce Wanjiru Njihia joined Mentor Sacco in January, 2023. That decision was not in vain. The Sacco came to her rescue when she was in a very challenging moment. “ Last year, my dad fell sick and he was admitted in hospital,” she recalled. “ We therefore urgently needed money to cater for his treatment,” she added. To overcome this hurdle, Joyce applied for an instant loan from Mentor Sacco using her mobile phone. To her delight, it was processed in less than three minutes. She settled the hospital fee and her dad was promptly discharged. “ I can testify that from that experience, I learnt that Mentor is a life saver and I therefore appeal to all my friends and colleagues who have not yet joined the Sacco to do so,” she happily said.
