The African Diaspora Never Felt This Close To Home: Introducing Sendsprint
SendSprint
Relocating from your country is a massive step for many reasons. There are several emotions people go through when they first move. Eventually, they realise it was the best move they made for reasons such as furthering their education, work purposes and many others.
Remittances are a lifeline for many families in Africa. Relocation is inevitable for many Africans. In 2020, 127.6 million Africans lived outside their home country. One of the challenges faced by people living outside their home country is the need to connect with their loved ones back home.
Here is a real-life scenario of a family to consider:
Kwabena works as an accountant in the U.K with his wife, who operates an African restaurant.
Their son, Nana, lives with his grandparents in Nairobi, who are retired from active work. Nana is in the third year of university studies and requires money to pay his school fees and cater for his upkeep.
For Nana, the money sent home by his parents is the only way he can continue with “life as usual”. Money and recurring gifts sent to him allow him to connect to his parents even though they are thousands of miles away. This is why Sendsprint was founded.
