## What is Golak?

Every culture has a name for it.
Committee. Susu. Tanda. Hagbad. Chit fund. Stokvel. Equb. Hui. Paluwagan. Gam'eya. Partner hand. Arisan. Tontine. Chama.
The names are different. The idea is the same — a group of people who trust each other, pool their money, and take turns. Communities have been doing this for centuries.
Golak helps you organize it properly.
