Five years Ngozi set up a community ‘pardna’ scheme to help people save
The ‘pardna’ is a system of communal lending and saving. This originated from the Windrush generation and the Africa diaspora. This allows individuals and community groups to access interest-free loans from the collective enabling them to reach their goals of providing services or products to their communities.
“My experience with the Eden Jar pardna has been a positive one.
I first joined over 5 years ago. The fees are fair and the draws are on time. The receipts are handy reminders of payments, so can keep track of where you are. I get a list letting me know when my turn is to get paid, this helps me to plan for large purchases or planning for example, when the children return to school. It is one that I would and have recommended to friends and family.
Thank you Eden Jar for years of support and community service.”
