This article examines the key features of group-based savings and credit programmes in Kenya. There is a growing desire for sustainability and independence among Kenyans as well as donors, but how can the NGOs running such programmes achieve sustainability in the long and short term? The article discusses the importance of group formation in African culture, and how NGOs can meet the expansion, training and development needs of enterprise development, and it concludes by commenting on the future prospects for NGO credit programmes.
