Kingsmead Junior School students will now travel safely, reliably, and with renewed enthusiasm for learning—thanks to a new, zero-mileage school bus acquired through MyCredit Limited’s innovative Kuza Elimu financing.
For many students across Kenya, the daily journey to school is a significant challenge. Unreliable transport, long commutes, and safety concerns often disrupt learning and affect school attendance. Access to safe, structured transportation is not just a logistical convenience—it is an essential pillar of educational success.
Recognizing this need, MyCredit Limited, a licensed and leading non-bank financial services provider, partnered with Kingsmead Junior School to facilitate the acquisition of a new school bus, ensuring that students arrive on time, ready to learn, and with peace of mind.
“We are not just financing vehicles; we are ensuring that more students experience safe, structured, and reliable transport to and from school. With Kuza Elimu, we’re enabling schools to expand opportunities for students without financial strain, strengthening the very foundation of their educational experience,” said David Wangai, Executive Director at MyCredit Limited.
The Kuza Elimu financing product, offering up to Ksh. 10 million in funding, allows schools to acquire buses, upgrade facilities, and modernize infrastructure without the burden of prohibitive upfront costs. For Kingsmead Junior School, the newly acquired zero-mileage bus under a 72-month financing plan represents more than just a vehicle—it is an investment in the school’s future.
While school buses remain a critical investment in ensuring student safety and accessibility, Kuza Elimu offers a holistic financing package that meets the evolving needs of educational institutions:
School Transport Financing (Repayment up to 6 years) – Helping schools acquire zero-mileage buses without upfront financial strain.
Working Capital Loans – Supporting day-to-day school operations, including salaries, food supplies, and essential expenses.
