My name is Pamela Ochieng. I come from Kisumu county in Kenya. Iam the first born in a family of 7, all alive with our last born still attending school.I work on temporary contracts as a counselor and majorly run a handworks shop in Ahero 17 km from Kisumu. Am a single of mother of three who are all attending school, single by circumstance not choice. Am a born again Christian and I serve in church as a construction treasurer and service lead, besides I also serve in praise and worship team, doing what I love most, I.e singing, playing guitar and piano.
I make money out of handworks which involves but not limited to shaggy mats, soft carpets. duvets, pillows, beadworks and traditional baskets. I also offer consultancy as a counselor especially in HIV/AIDS and study coordination.
I want to double the quantity of materials i always buy as i have one more person to help me do the mats. by making 3 matss in a week i will be able to make 8400.Out of this i will pay 1000 to the lady helping in the shop, 2700 for loan repayment , 2000 for savings, 1000 for more materials and 1700 for upkeep. In order to realise this , i need 1000 out of which ihave 650 from previous sales. so an aditional 395 will be suficient for next purchase.
