  • About DPAK SACCO

In the year 2019 ,12 domestic workers from Domestic Professionals Association of Kenya (DPAK) came together and started a welfare group whose mission was to pool their resources together for the purpose of loaning the members and investing. The group agreed to save a minimum of Kshs. 300, 200 was savings and 100 would go towards helping a member in the case of loss of a loved one.

This went on for 3 years and the group decided to add more members as they had seen the benefits savings gave them. 5 of them were so focused on building a financial institution that will impact on the lives of their fellow domestic workers and proposed that the group register a Savings and Credit Cooperative Society. The process of registration started in April 2022 and in May 2022 DPAK Sacco was officially registered under the Co-operative Societies Act (Cap490) Laws of Kenya. As at the first special General Meeting the Sacco had 30 new members.

DPAK Sacco is focused on building the capacity of its members to make financial decisions through financial literacy programs that run monthly both in person and online. Membership is open to persons working in the domestic service sector, nannies, housekeepers, cooks, caregivers, homecare health assistants, security guards, gardeners, cleaners. We accept members referred by existing members if they meet the minimum membership requirements.
