Introduction:
I am excited to announce that I have been selected as one of the 5000 African entrepreneurs to be empowered by the Tony Elumelu Foundation in 2021. The Tony Elumelu Foundation is the leading philanthropy empowering young entrepreneurs across Africa. It provides seed funding, training, and mentorship to entrepreneurs with innovative business ideas.
I am the founder of ESS Creative & Legal Foundation, a Tanzanian justice social enterprise that provides affordable legal services to individuals and businesses. We are using technology to make legal services more accessible and affordable for everyone.
How the Tony Elumelu Foundation Will Empower Me
The Tony Elumelu Foundation will empower me in a number of ways. First, I will receive seed funding to support the growth of my business. Second, I will have access to training and mentorship from experienced entrepreneurs and business leaders. Third, I will be part of a network of over 5000 African entrepreneurs who are all working to make a difference in their communities.
My Goals for the Future
My goal is to make ESS Creative & Legal Foundation the leading provider of legal services in Tanzania. I want to make legal services accessible and affordable for everyone, regardless of their income. I also want to use my business to promote social justice and economic development in Tanzania.
I am grateful to the Tony Elumelu Foundation for this opportunity. I am committed to using the resources and support that I receive from the foundation to make a positive impact on my community and the world.
