About Me

Am Dorine Auma Buluma,23 years of age.Born and raised in Busia county,work and live Busia town.I was was born in the family of six i being the second born.

I am holding diploma in ICT and self employed at my cyber cafe in Busia town.I started my business more than a year ago immediately after my college so that to keep myself busy and also i may earn a living before i could secure any kind of job in future.

My business has been doing too good the fact that Busia is a border of Kenya and Uganda so i have lots of customers who are using internet to clear their vehicle when they are crossing the border.

From the business i pay my own rent,feed myself and also support my family at home.

My Business

I run a small cyber cafe in Busia town.My business has five computers,printers and binding machine.The business is purely a sole proprietor of which i started with the capital from my savings and the soft loan i was given by my father.

I offer internet service,printing,typing,photocopying and binding.The demand is high the fact that Busia is situated in Kenya Uganda border so most of my customers are those who want to cross the border so i offer my service for them while they clear and forward their vehicles.

My business is profitable because i have so many customers so the more i serve the more i earn.The risk am facing is just lack of captal to expand my business.

My monthly cost is as follows KES 5000 rent,KES 3000 orange data bundles,KES 6000 and KES 5000 for other expences.Frofit ranges from KES 10000-20000 per month.The loan i will used to modify my business and its the business that will repay the loan.

Loan Proposal

I want to use the loan to buy hp scaner.This is because i have alot of scanning jobs that requires a very high speed scanner.I also want to buy colour printer.This is because i have a tender to make 10000 coloured posters by the end of Aprill.If i buy this printer i will manage this tender without problem at all.Lastly i want to stock three rims of printing papers and printing inks.

    zidisha,
    From what I got from the last loan I purchased a photocopier since what I had was damaged by power and there was need for a new one. it also helped me to move from the previous apartment to a new one sine where I was it belonged to the government hence I was given a notice immediately luckily zidisha loan was just disbursed just few day after getting the notice from . From my previous earning I have increased because before current loan I did not have a photocopier machine.

    From the loan I have been able to cater for my siblings school fees and my mother’s business . I have been able to get my mother on her feet business wise though the income is not sufficient but at list she is busy. From her saving i manage to add my savings and pay my siblings school fees.

    In my neighborhood hood I have been motivated by young people who are doing their best to get on their feet. Most of them I have introduced to the zidisha family they have shown very big improvement since they have been developing their life’s e.g. Some have been able to buy land as a group and they are laying down foundation for rental houses for business people who live in Busia as visitors business wise.

    Dear lenders,

    I am thankfull day to all my lenders for their support as i share with you my last down fall and today's success.For the last months after my loan was disbursted i had so many challeges in my business but the worse that i will never forgate is when power bring all my computers down and the business stoped indefinately.Life was hard when i have to repay the loan and provide for my family too when the business is closed.But i thank God Zidisha lenders are the best people in this world,they were patient with me even though i reschedule my loan madly till i came back on my feet.Today i cant believe it if today my business is back to normal and am able to repay back my loan again.That was my hardest time in life.

    Thank you all.
    Dorine

    Dear Zidisha lenders kindly allow me to reschedule my loan because i got a tender of ksh 45000 at Busia Township primary school to type and print examination.Now from this amount i will be able to pay my loan again.Your money really helped me and it will be good if i repay it back on time and also avoid paying more interest.I hope you will welcome the move.
