Legacy Thrive graduates 70 in financial literacy program

NAIROBI, Kenya, May 6 – Legacy Thrive Partners Ltd has graduated its first cohort of 70 participants under its Legacy Building Program, aimed at promoting financial literacy and wealth creation.

The initiative is designed to equip individuals with practical skills on financial planning, investment and long-term wealth management.

“A total of 70 participants completed the intensive program, gaining valuable insights into making informed financial decisions and exploring innovative strategies for wealth-building,” the organisation said.

Founder and Lead Advisor Vanessa Thamaini underscored the need for broader financial awareness, urging Kenyans to explore diverse investment options beyond traditional savings.

“Many people earn well, but a significant portion is lost to loans or assets that don’t add value. We need to think differently about financial planning,” she said.

She added that her experience in financial advisory, particularly working with high-net-worth individuals, inspired the creation of the programme to extend financial knowledge to a wider audience.

Looking ahead, the firm plans to expand the initiative, with a second cohort scheduled for August 2026 targeting 300 participants.

Legacy Thrive is also rolling out additional offerings, including financial management masterclasses, family-focused financial literacy sessions for children, and corporate training programmes aimed at improving financial decision-making in workplaces.

The organisation said the programmes are part of a broader strategy to promote financial empowerment as a pathway to long-term stability and generational wealth.
