We sell smokies, mandazi, and cakes every Sunday after both services. The money raised from this sale is used to fund the activities of the youth department. Smokies are purchased from the local supermarkets then boiled and sold at some profit. Cakes are also bought and cut into small pieces for sale. Baking floor and other ingredients are purchased then mandazi cooked by the youth.
On 'special' days we sell customized items like handkerchiefs, T-shirts, calendars, mugs, key holders. However, the selling of branded pens is continous. We selll the pens every Sunday after both services and also when we have other events in the church.
We kept 100 layers for about two years from February 2019 to July 2020 then we sold them. It was a good project, especially for starters. We gained a lot of experience. From the reports, we will determine whether to resume or look for a different project. We thank everyone for their support in the project.
We wash cars in the church from time to time to raise funds to replenish our account. These funds are used during emergencies and also during youth events like hikes and rallies.
