About Me
My names are Juliana Chebet Mbugua. I was born and raised in the Rift Valley in a town called Kericho, and I have 3 brothers and two sisters. I joined Loitok Tok High School before I got married to a guy from Central who was working as a mechanic in the Rift Valley. Life in my home was so hard and my brothers had to go to school, so I had to get married to at least reduce the burden at home.
After marriage everything was OK: a hard-working husband who took care of me, opened a shop for me, and I got my first son a year later. My husband helped my brothers with their schooling and almost did everything for them.
After the 2008 elections is when things became hard. As I am from Rift Valley and my husband is from Central, and the two tribes are fighting against each other, my husband had to go to Central with the kids and I had to remain in the Rift Valley. We couldn't pay rent, school fees were a problem, but when peace was found again, I decided to join my husband in Central and we began a new life.
Things were hard because I didn't have a job and my husband was not known, so life was really stressful. Then I had to go to farms to do labour works, digging cultivation. This how I got employed at Betel Children's Home: when the pastor found my work in the farm to be good, I was employed to take care of the farm, then later as a matron.
My son is into business, the second-born is doing social science final year, and my last-born daughter is in high school and would like to be a nurse in the future. I like travelling, playing with kids, and farming.
My Business
I am a matron at Betel Children's Home. My work is to cook and take care of 15 children. I am paid a monthly salary of 350 USD, which I spend on my child's education and support my husband, who is a mechanic. I also do small-scale farming in the church farm, but this is not for sale: it's used to feed the children.
In the church, there is plenty of space where I can rear chickens for sale, and this the reason I will really appreciate getting a loan which will support me in beginning this project. Chicken is always in demand, and I am sure if I begin this I will be able to target hotels and people around. With the help of the kids, it will be easy for me to do the project.
Loan Proposal
Given the loan in amount 365 us dollars i will use 100 us dollars to buy chick feeds this will be 5 sacks of different types of feeds at 20 us dollars per sack, 60 us dollars to buy drinkers and eguipments, 5 us dollars for transportation and 100 us dollars I will use to pay school fee for my daughter which is required as from next term.
this will prepare me for the next six months and by then i will have start selling the chicks that are ready.
The profits i will make will be for family upkeep and basic needs.
