In a bid to support women entrepreneurs and business owners, Ecobank Uganda has launched “Ellevate by Ecobank,” a groundbreaking program designed to foster growth, success, and overall well-being. The initiative is built on the philosophy of “More than Money,” recognizing that women’s needs extend beyond financial solutions.
A Holistic Approach
“Ellevate” is a comprehensive ecosystem that combines financial services, training, visibility, and emotional support. By acknowledging the multiple roles women play as leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and caregivers, the program provides a tailored approach to empowerment.
A Step Towards Inclusive Growth
According to Grace Muliisa, Managing Director of Ecobank Uganda, “We believe women deserve more than just banking products. They deserve opportunities, access, and peace of mind. ‘Ellevate’ gives them this and more.” The program aims to attract more women-led businesses, nurture existing female customers, and ensure that Ecobank’s services are inclusive and effective.
Beyond Financial Support
Elizabeth Mwerinde Kasedde, Head of Commercial Banking at Ecobank Uganda, notes that women require more than just financial assistance. “They need mentors, wellness programs, learning opportunities, and a community. ‘Ellevate’ is our response to that need.” By launching this initiative, Ecobank Uganda is committed to driving economic growth, one woman at a time.
A New Era of Banking
“Ellevate by Ecobank” reflects the bank’s vision for Africa’s growth, inclusivity, and purpose-driven leadership. With this launch, Ecobank Uganda solidifies its position as a forward-thinking institution dedicated to redefining banking for women.
