About Me

I grew up with my mum alone after my dad passed away when I was still young,I was the last born in a family of 5 children. I went to musingu primary school and later joined kamusinga girls for o-levels but i dropped out of school at my third year due to lack of fees,I went to nairobi where I worked as a househelp for a year as I saved money to join beauty college.i successfully enrolled for hair dressing and beuty course.
The main hardship I had as start up was capital<i haf no capital to begin with and had to work for a year as I saved.
After one year of hard work and determination I was able to open my saloon. though i did not have enough money I decided to try out with the little had saved. With quality work and determination the business picked up well and I thank God.
i have one kid and she is six months,i love her so much and I am working hard to give her good life.
i love reading novels,visiting friends, visiting children homes and hospitals during my free time. I also take some time to help me clean the environment.

My Business

I run a saloon business,I provide quality services such as manicure,pedicure,hairdressing,plating and blow drying.
the goods and services are important because most ladies wast to look nice and therefore I make them look more beautiful and nice.
i choose these business because I loved it since I was young and I am happy it satisfies me .
my typical costs per month are $150 and my mothenly revenues are $350 per month. I use the money to care of my kids,my parents,pay fees for one orphan kid and save for investment.

Loan Proposal

hellow lenders ,due to frequent blackouts,I wish to request for a loan to buy a solar that will enable me to cut the costs of electricity and work more efficiently. with the solar I would be able to work for longer hours and serve my clients more conveniently. I would also be able to attract mre customers hence more revenues. The solar costs $240 and i would add $180 from my savings to have the solar .thank you.
