About Me
My name is Nancy Saenyi. I was born in western side of Kenya. I am a single mother of 1 girl who is three years old. I was born in a farming community where every family in the area tend their small parcels of land.
I went to primary and later joined secondary school for four years. I later left home to live with my aunt in a distant town of Mombasa. While in Mombasa I enrolled to a short computer applications course. I later started doing a diploma course in Business Administration which I am still doing.
My daughter would like to become a teacher when she grows up. My hobbies are reading and traveling.
My Business
I sell clothes and ladies accessories as a side business so as to give me some income while still schooling. This business gives me about $150 per month which I use for my upkeep and send some small amount home to my parents who live with my daughter.
I sell these items from door to door and with time I have established a reliable clientele and I am hoping to build on this group to keep growing. I am planning to continue doing this business in a bigger way once I clear my studies in a few months to come.
Loan Proposal
I will buy ladies handbags which do well around this time. With time, I have created a loyal clientele and I will be counting on these people to buy from me.
I will spend this money to buy half a dozen low cost hand bags and then sell them at 35% profit. This income will help me a great deal in growing my business.
