A new fund piloting in 2026 that puts money directly into the hands of people working in markets, with no middlemen.
A new, direct fund
The Katale Fund is a new programme introduced after the last campaign and piloting from 2026. It is built on a simple promise: support only those working in the markets, and let them receive the money directly.
How it is different
- No middlemen between the fund and the trader.
- Beneficiaries get the money directly.
- Targeted specifically at people earning their living in markets.
The pilot will test how quickly and cleanly funds can reach market vendors before the model is scaled.
