Surviving January: I’m ready to tell my story

January can be one of the toughest months of the year. After the holidays, many Bahamians find themselves stretching every dollar, getting creative with finances, and relying on resilience, humor, and faith to pull through.
Surviving January is a social media campaign by Kanoo Pays created to give the community a platform to share real stories of how they are navigating the month financially—and to offer support where it’s needed.
We’re inviting the public to tell their story. Whether it’s through a comment, a short video, or a creative photo moment, participants are encouraged to show us how they are surviving January and making it work.
To help lighten the load, Kanoo Pays will be giving away $500 in Kanoo Cash, awarded to five (5) winners who share authentic, creative, and relatable stories.
