About Me

About me
My name is Bosco David Mwakibinga, I was born in Mbeya region when we were 2 children. Unfortunately, my sister died early and left a child who I live with and educate.
I grew up in Mbeya-Tanzania and graduated 2015 a diploma of secondary Education with teaching subjects Geography and History.
When I was at collage , God helped me to pay fees for my own and to help my late sister's son to continue his studies due to the small projects I was doing including breeding and selling Phone and Computer Accessories in the community around me.
At first, I opened a project for the sale of Phone and Computer Accessories in the neighborhood where I live and continued to see the community's need for products from chicken farming such as meat and eggs that are used in social activities like ceremony, and I was able to start a chicken farming project through learning at farmers' exhibitions Tanzania, and started raising chickens without affecting the first activity of selling mobile devices.

My Business

My business
I started my business after graduating college in 2015, I did it at a low level due to lack of capital and coming from a family with a low income, I had to do labors to earn income for my family's employer. Where I continued with the business of Phone and Computer Accessories and when it arrived in 2022 I saw that the community has a need for the products of chickens farming, I learned through the farmers' exhibitions in Tanzania. Where I decided to help my family to set aside time to serve 100 chickens which are Hybrid (SASO) of one day and prepare them until they are old enough to send them to buyers who need meat and others to prepare them for eggs.
I spend four to six hours every day to monitor the progress of chickens in the barn to reduce the challenge of diseases and deaths, which has helped to improve the chicken products when the time comes to sell them, which helps to make a profit and improve the quality of life of my family.
I have many needs that I cannot meet because I don't have enough time, I would like to develop my projects to give opportunities to brothers and people in my community through breeding and distribution of chickens and eggs.

Project Proposal

My Project
Your loan will be a great help in increasing the number of chickens from 100 to 500 chickens because that number will increase employment opportunities for my family and community, where together we can serve and distribute chickens and eggs in needy communities.
I am asking for a loan of only three hundred thousand tsh (300000/=) which will help me develop and develop this chicken breeding project.
Thank you for your loan, because we can raise many chickens that will benefit my family from a poor income to a good one as well as the families of my fellow youths who I will have hired to run this project and will never stop improving our lives and society in general.

    Happy new year to you, the progress of the projects is in a better situation , thank you Zidisha organization for ensuring that my project has life, so I continue well with the weekly returns, focused on the payment of returns on time.
    There has been the death of one chicken, after the follow-up I found out that it was flu (respiratory problem), so I had to clean the shed well and healthy chickens i give the Trimafarm medicine for medical and preventive care.
    Thankyou for your time and consideration,
    Yours Bosco David

    How are you my Backers
    Kindly, Thank you for supporting my project and i received the money on 12th December 2023.

    The market availability of day-old chicks has become scarce, to obtain it requires placing an order and waiting for 3 to 4 weeks.
    Based on that, I have made a decision on 13th December 2023 to buy 28-day-old chicks, each of which I have bought for $2.1, in total I have bought 110 chicks with the total amount of $231.
    $130 is from you my Zidisha Backers and the remaining amount which is $101 from my savings also $13 from the savings I have bought materials to make food for the chicks along with a vitamin called boostermin which helps the chickens eat well and grow fast.
    AND BLESS YOU BY THE LORD WHO MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH

    With this fund you gave me, I will buy 110 chickens@$0.69=$75.9
    Chicken feed 50 kg chicks = $35.65
    And the remaining amount will be used to buy medicines for chickens like Glucose, Neo Chicks and new castle vaccination

    This money will help me to reduce the burden of serving chickens and running my other projects, it will help me to get the money I get from the project of selling phone accessories to be directed to the relevant project because Zidisha has helped me to reduce the costs of running the chickens breeding project.

    I am very grateful for enabling me and helping this project in general it will improve my life and my relatives who depend on me. May God blessed you in everything you do for being able to hold my hand in this project
