Shared Value

Through our shared value model, Hollard is proud to serve underserved communities with innovative funeral plans — Motshidisi and Karabo — in partnership with BotswanaPost and Botswana Telecommunications Communication. These products ensure access to a dignified burial and financial inclusion for the unbanked and underbanked segments of our society. Our mission is to provide affordable and inclusive funeral cover, contributing to the financial empowerment of these communities. By addressing the specific needs of individuals who may have been excluded from traditional financial services, we are committed to making a meaningful impact and ensuring that everyone has access to the protection they deserve.
