Mama Money looks forward to celebrating International Day of Family Remittances this June and is proud to offer low-cost transfers that you can rely on so you can easily send money home to your loved ones each and every month.
The International Day of Family Remittances (IDFR) was first adopted by the United Nations General Assembly and has since become an important event recognized around the world. The day is celebrated each year on the 16th of June and highlights the important role migrants’ contributions play in supporting their families back home.
Did you know that remittances directly impact around one billion people each year as either senders or receivers?
It’s been reported that around 200 million migrant workers located in over 40 countries around the world send remittances to 800 million relatives located in low- and middle- income countries. This means that the money transferred through remittances helps to make up an average of 60% of household incomes.
Mama Money is passionate about impacting the lives of the community and our mobile app was developed to help lower the costs of money transfers. Now you can send money home to your loved ones or community members to help contribute to basic housing costs, school fees, utilities or medical aid.
