YATA has initiated a unique funding model, by lending money to assist Yoruba artisans and traders. The borrowed funds will be managed transparently, facilitated by guarantors within the association. This unique strategy involves promoting discipline and quick repayments, ensuring the involvement of local leaders as guarantors for loan recipients. This financial support aims to empower members to start and expand their businesses thereby limiting the prevalence of street begging within the Yoruba community.
YATA's roots trace back to the Yoruba tradition of collective support, exemplified by practices like "ajo adako." In the world of commerce, our forefathers pioneered ventures, but setbacks occurred due to lack of collaboration. Now, YATA is on a mission to revive our entrepreneurial spirit, empowering artisans and traders financially to reclaim our prominence.
