About Me

Hello to you all.
I hope you are all well,I am Bridigt Imamai,from Uasin Gishu county and . I grew up in the village and went to school in tolei primary school and Turkana girls secondary school. After completing secondary school, ,my parents wanted to marry me off and these forced me to move away from home . I went to eldoret town where I found a job as a house maid. I worked for 6 months ,and save $200 that I used to start my cloths business, the business did well and I always reinvested my profits in the business.I have now opened a shop where I run my business from.
I come from the turkana community and we got lots of god culture though some are bad such as female circumcision,and marrying off young women, and cattle theft.
I am not yet married but I have one kid I adopted from the street,she is young beautiful woman whom I believed should be given a chance to live a normal life.
I spend most of my time in the shop but when free,I spend time in the church with other singing and praising the lord,I also visit friends and socialize and advice one another.

My Business

I am a young entrepreneur ,who believes in the power of woman and determined to succeed . I sell cloths both second hand and new cloths.
The demand for cheap clothing has grown due to high populations in eldoret town .
I choose these business because it had good profits and required small start up capital.
my typical costs are $100 for operations costs and $300 are my monthly revenues.
I use the money to take care of my adopted kid, pay fees for my diploma course and send money to my parents. Thank you

    I am sorry your last fund raising attempt didn't get the full amount. I hope this one does. But if not, please don't give up - it will get there eventually.
