Kemitnetwork offers a simple solution to the well-known problem of all Africans in the diaspora, namely the reduction of the very high repatriation costs that the bereaved have to pay.

Who doesn’t know that? After a death in the African community, the same pattern emerges again and again: shock – grief – willingness to help immediately and help the bereaved – actions to raise money – and again and again the sentence: “Que la terre de nos ancêtres lui soit légère. ” (May the earth of our ancestors be easy for him). This last sentence implicitly means that the person concerned should be returned to his home country. Driven by this incredible urge for solidarity, followed by great emotions, unfortunately many mistakes are made, and the same mistakes and problems over and over again. Unfortunately, there has also been an increase in cases of fraud recently, which are mainly related to the collection of money for bereavement in the diaspora.

Driven by this At Kemitnetwork, the solidarity and emotions that are strongly present in such cases are channeled in a standardized fundraising campaign (so-called tontine) in order to support or assist the bereaved at the funeral. Kemitnetwork therefore offers financial, moral and social support in the event of bereavement.

At the same time, In addition to the main goal of repatriation, Kemitnetwork also achieves a strong network and bond based on the African lifestyle.  Through the platform, the original African social way of life is taken up and promoted in order to prevent the sometimes anonymous life or the fear of loneliness in the diaspora. Participants can rely on a strong social network.
