About Me

My name is petermwaura maimba,I came from Nakuru county.I was born and raised in Nakuru.I went to school in Nakuru the school was flamingo primary.I was raised up by my mother being a single parent.my dad passed away when I was in class 1.I overcame many obstacles of life being the first born,we are four children ,two boys and two girls.I was the one who was taking care of my siblings when my mother went to a quarry to break some stone to become ballast for constructing.It was very hard for me to wash my siblings,cooking for them and study the same time.But God is good I managed to do well in my exam,but fortunately my mother could not afford school fees for high school.I joined him at the quarry.In quarry I was saving little without telling my mother coz I didn't want her to continue with that kind of job.after saving I talked to her to let me be the bread winner of the family which she accepted. I started with selling sodas,suits and cakes.I was very lucky coz I opened an electrical shop even though my Capital was too small,it happens that I saw Zidisha through Facebook and decided to try their peer to peer lending to boost my business which I'm sure they will make me realize my potential and pay school fees for my siblings.In Nakuru the land is so fertile i wanted to buy my mum a piece of land for her to do farming if God wishes.my siblings I know they will not let me down coz they promised me to go to school always.The other day after closing the school none of them came no 5,it was 2,3 and 4.That's why I want them to be what they want to be.our second born wants to be an air hostess,the third one who is girls also wants to be a Nurse and the last one wants to be a Lecturer,so pls guys help me to nurture their potential

My Business

My businnes doesn't do bad coz at the end of the day I happen to make $20 profit after deducting all the expenses.I decided to put up an electroca shop coz in our country people have started being connected with the electricity,that's why I chose this business coz for now demand is very high.After deducting my expenses I paid the school fees to my siblings and save something for my mother to have a farm.I know Zidisha will boost me with a loan to start growing my business to become big for my family to get school fees,and still have my growing business with stock.

Loan Proposal

I'm determined to add some small quantities to my electric shop,where by I know I will borrow a bigger loan later
