To that end, it was with great excitement that we broke ground on the first phase of construction for the Zena Campus. This phase includes the new office spaces, state of the art studio and our 8 stance latrine, providing the essential structures for our campus. Our hope is that one day this campus will be the site of hundreds of stories of transformation. We have celebrated exciting milestones this year including the achievement of Zena graduates Lydia Kifuko who was recognised as one of Busoga’s top 100 extraordinary women in business, as well as Salima Nakutuba who was featured as a Top 10 Voice in International magazine Women in Business for her story of opening the first laundromat in Kamuli.

We celebrated the graduation of 25 incredible women from our entrepreneurship training programme, bringing the total number of graduates since the programme's inception to 91. Each of these women gained the skills, confidence, and resources to launch their entrepreneurial journeys, marking a significant milestone in their personal and professional growth. A major highlight of the year was breaking ground on the construction of our new campus, which will significantly enhance our capacity to train and empower more women. This development represents an exciting step forward in our ability to scale operations, expand programme offerings, and create a state-of-the-art learning environment. We also successfully piloted a community functional adult literacy class, an initiative aimed at extending our impact beyond Zena programme members. This class addresses the widespread need for basic literacy skills in our communities, and we are excited to relaunch it next year with an expanded reach. Additionally, we implemented new monitoring and evaluation tools, including digital data collection methods, to better track programme impact and ensure accountability to our stakeholders. This annual report is an exciting one as it also includes data from our first ever comprehensive Annual Graduate Survey. We have been able to survey over half of our total graduates and were able to collect data on their quality of life indicators, business profitability and family life since graduating from Zena. As we move forward into 2025, we are excited to keep developing our programme, deepening community engagement, and supporting our alumni network to sustain longterm impact.

The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 4 3 woman’s self belief and sense of agency. ## OUR MODEL ## OUR APPROACH The Zena Launchpad was founded in 2016 with a mission to create sustainable solutions to poverty by empowering women entrepreneurs in Uganda. Our founders, inspired by academic research and on-theground experience, developed a model that breaks away from traditional handouts and loans. ## We take a holistic approach to capacity building. We believe that poverty is more than just a financial state. Instead, it impacts women socially, relationally, spiritually and mentally. Earning also provides the perfect backdrop for education. Zena women learn business leadership, digital skills, leadership and financial literacy. Our graduates go on to mentor new participants, spreading the knowledge and fostering a ripple effect of empowerment. ## Women in our programme don’t just receive capital; they earn it through short-term employment contracts. We believe that employment allows women to learn that their time has value. Earning a pay check for herself profoundly impacts a We believe in the agency of the most marginalised and that with the right tools—debt-free capital, capacity-building, and education—women can redefine their futures and transform their communities. 6 The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 7 ## Impact Statistics 70% of all graduate businesses are active and generating income, showing strong sustainability. 78% of surveyed graduates reported an increase in their savings compared to last year. 90% of surveyed graduates have made additional business, capital or income generating investments this year. 88% of surveyed graduates reported an increase in profits compared to last year. 33% of surveyed graduates are now involved in a community leadership role. reported improved personal well-being 100% reported improved family well-being felt they were powerful decision-makers in their households of graduates 24 new jobs supported by Zena businesses in 2024. The average number of people financially supported by a Zena graduate is 5 The average graduate business generates £1,615 in annual profit, with some making over £3,500 per year £55,800 in revenue generated by Zena graduates in 2024 £24,500 in profit generated by Zena graduates in 2024 (for context, the average monthly income of a woman before the Zena programme is under £20 a month. This represents a lifechanging income for families.) 70% of graduate businesses are currently active. Of those, 72% were willing to be surveyed. 50% of all Zena graduates were available to be surveyed. www.thezenalaunchpad.com The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 8 9 A notable highlight was a specialist session on layer poultry projects, led by an expert from Jeka Poultry Farm in Kamuli. This hands-on session equipped programme members with the knowledge to explore poultry farming as a viable business venture. ## ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING PROGRAMME Our entrepreneurship training department delivered over 250 in-house sessions focused on building essential skills in entrepreneurship, leadership, digital literacy, functional adult literacy (FAL), holistic development, and agricultural practices. We also offer optional Bible study. and agricultural practices. Along with these training We also offer optional Bible sessions, the women also study. received over 200 combined individual These sessions laid the counselling and foundation for personal mentorship sessions from growth and entrepreneurial our counsellor and success. In addition to our inprogramme staff. house classes, we hosted specialist training sessions for our programme members.10 “Zena has taught me how to read, write and count. I am now able to write my name very well, I note down all the expenditures I make in a month. This has helped me track down how I use my money. I have also acquired more business skills that I am also sharing with my fellow women in my community” ## IRENE (2024 COHORT) The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 11 “Love has been restored in my family because I can cater for their needs and also be happy. Before joining the programme, I used to be bitter and tough with my children. As the head of the family, I was frustrated because I could not meet all my financial needs. Zena has taught me to be calm, and embrace whatever situation I am going through while loving myself.” HANIFAH (2024 COHORT) The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 12 13 ## PHASE III BUSINESS AGRICULTURAL PROJECT TRAINING This year, programme members participated in a four-month pilot business project, working in five groups of five members to manage a total seed capital of UGX 1,250,000 (£275) - UGX 250,000 (£55) per group. Programme members had the opportunity to attend two major events: the National Agricultural Show in Jinja and a local agricultural show hosted by Iowa State University Uganda Programme. These events exposed them to innovative farming techniques, networking opportunities, and inspiration to invest in and expand their agribusiness ventures. By the end of the project, they had collectively turned their investments into UGX 4,284,900 (£938). The exercise provided participants with real-world experience in teamwork, financial management, and scaling small businesses. This is part of our continued efforts to educate our programme members about sustainable agriculture and agribusiness since we have observed that 35% of Zena graduates have gone on to invest in agribusiness ventures. (Pictured opposite, top left: Nasita buying bananas from a farmer during Phase III) (Pictured opposite, bottom right: programme members at the National Agricultural Show) “I was able to overcome my fears during Phase III. Previously, I was not confident enough to approach someone and sell them something. During Phase III, I had to move from house to house selling my vegetables.” NASTA (2024 COHORT) “I always thought that having a lot of money is the only way one can start and run a business, but through the Phase III project, I realised that one can start with the little money one has.” MOUREEN (2024 COHORT) The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 14 15 MONTHLY SAVINGS why we encourage all our graduates not to seek immediate gains but rather to have long-term visions and plans that guarantee their long-term financial security. ## FINANCIAL LITERACY TRAINING “Before joining Zena I was told I was nothing, so I sat at home doing nothing. At Zena my teachers see me as an important person, not an illiterate person.” Financial management was strengthened through one in-house session and two expert-led sessions by Centenary Bank and NSSF (pictured above). These sessions covered topics such as saving, budgeting, and planning for long-term financial sustainability. BETTY (2024 COHORT) It is for that reason that we organise these financial literacy training sessions to ensure that our programme members are equipped with the knowledge and skills to achieve long-term financial security. At Zena, financial literacy that guarantees the sustained financial security of our programme members is something that we take seriously. That is 96% of programme members started saving more when they joined the Zena Launchpad. The average monthly savings of Zena programme members can be banded as below: 12% saved less than UGX 50,000 (£10.50) monthly 12% saved 40% saved more than UGX between UGX 50,000 200,000 (£42) (£10.50) - monthly UGX 100,000 (£21) monthly 36% saved between UGX 100,000 (£21) - UGX 200,000 (£42) monthly 16 The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 17 GRADUATE Q&A GENDER BASED VIOLENCE (GBV) To bridge the gap AWARENESS between current programme members and alumni, we hosted graduate Q&A sessions. Alumni who are successfully running businesses shared their experiences, answered questions, and mentored the current cohort, providing invaluable practical insights. In collaboration with UWONET (Uganda Women’s Network), we hosted a specialised session on gender-based violence. Participants gained knowledge about GBV, available support services, referral pathways in case they experienced GBV, existing protective laws on GBV and how to create safer environments for themselves and others. These relationships established between the current cohort and alumni have proven crucial in ensuring that programme members have role-models to learn from and seek guidance from when they graduate from the training programme. “I now feel that my life has been rejuvenated, I don't feel alone, I am happy. Putting an end to the gender-based violence I used to experience is the best thing that has ever happened to me” (pictured opposite: Elizabeth, a Zena alumnus, leading the graduate Q&A) According to a survey conducted among our 2024 programme members, 50% of married programme members had experienced different forms of domestic violence (physical, sexual, emotional and others) before joining Zena. 25% of programme members were experiencing domestic violence at the time. After participating in the UWONET session, programme members reported a reduction in GBV and, by the end of the year, the number of women who were experiencing GBV had fallen by 25%. **----- Start of picture text -----**

ZENA IN THE PRESS We were excited to welcome Annabel Grossman, Executive Editor at The Independent for a 5 day visit to Zena in October 2024. “Rather than keep the women dependent on their wages from working at Zena, the programme helps them to become selfsufficient and financially independent, and to start giving back to their communities.” (ANNABEL GROSSMAN - The Independent) The resultant feature was published in December on the front page of The Independent Online and The Zena Launchpad - Annual Report 2024 www.thezenalaunchpad.com 22 23 ## Impact Stories SARAH’S WATERMELON VENTURE Sarah arrived at Zena with aspirations to farm watermelons on a large scale but with limited means to make her dream a reality. By saving part of her stipend and applying the skills she learned, Sarah rented an acre of land, harvested her first crop, and earned UGX 1,200,000 (£249) in profits. She invested in a cow and plans to expand her farming ventures next year. “Planting these watermelons gave me a glimpse of how my future will be.

At the salon, Aminah offers free hair care training to young girls and women from the community. She also trains them in other skills like liquid soap processing and craft making whereby they can produce various designs of shoes, and jewellery Through this exemplary work, Aminah was approached by a local NGO to train groups of women and girls in these and other skills, an offer she gladly accepted and she now splits her time between her salon and training other women with the local NGO. It is because of this that we say at Zena that: “Our graduates are not beneficiaries of our program, they are the benefactors of their communities.” Aminah is one of many Zena graduates who are ## SARAH LUBUGA Sarah, who sells clothes door to door to support her grandchildren, used her earnings to complete her home and purchase land for farming.
