FXPesa deepens support for literacy through CR Hope Foundation in Tanzania

Nairobi, Kenya – 18 February 2026, FXPesa, the first CMA-licensed broker in Kenya, powered by Equiti Group, is supporting access to education for children in an under-resourced community in Tanzania by funding a local school operated by the CR Hope Foundation. The initiative aligns with FXPesa’s broader corporate social responsibility approach, which focuses on education, empowerment, inclusion and equality.

The support provides students in Kizimkazi, Zanzibar, with a safe, sustainable learning environment, addressing the village's long-standing shortage of educational facilities. Through this initiative, FXPesa supports the education of 180 students aged 3-13, while equipping 13 teachers with resources and funding essential operational costs (including key infrastructure) to ensure reliable school operations and long-term service to the local community.

Commenting on the initiative, Kinan Hassino, Equiti General Director - Abu Dhabi Branch, said: “Literacy is often the foundation for opportunity. When children are able to read, learn and remain engaged in education, the benefits can extend beyond the classroom and influence families and communities over time. This initiative supports a more consistent learning environment, allowing children to develop and teachers to focus on guiding them during their formative years.”

Renos Fountoulakis, founder of CR Hope Foundation, added: “This partnership goes far beyond funding a school it is about giving children a chance in Kizimkazi to grow and dream in a challenging and impoverished community. With educated children and empowered teachers, the long-term impact is generational."

The effort reflects FXPesa’s continued focus on supporting practical, community-led efforts that address local needs in underserved communities.
