About Me

I am Emmanuel Okoko Khayo, Kenyan citizen by birth, the sixth born in a family of 13. I am 33 years of age, married and blessed with a baby boy Samuel. I settled in Mombasa after my studies and started a computer business.

I am a pastor of Shalom Baptist Church in Mikindani. I love reading the bible, singing and travelling for mission work of reaching the unreached with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The kindergarten I run at the church is a charity work, as all the children here are orphans and so they could not afford education in public private academies. I took it on myself without any sponsor to provide the kids with a uniform, breakfast and lunch, stationary and paying the tutors who spend with them the entire day at the church.

I want to build them classrooms, as they are still using the church hall as their class. I would also like to have chairs specifically made for them, as now they use church seats which are quite big for their size.

Currently I provide them with one pair of uniform, but I want to provide them with at least two so that in a week they can change it and it will last longer. I also plan to provide them with shoes, as most of them come to school barefooted.
God willing, I also want to build them a house and hire mummies that will take care of them, provide medication and good food.

My Business

I run a computer shop, dealing in computer sales and services, software installation, photocopying, binding and lamination, passport photo service, project typing and research.

I have started a school at the church which deals with orphans. I would like to expand the school so that the public can join and the fees they pay could sustain the orphans.

My computer shop on a monthly basis gives me not less than USD $500, so I make around USD $200 profit per month. The location of my business is strategic, as I am just opposite a primary school where they give me most of their work to do. My shop is also at the terminus of commuter buses from town, so all the people alight there and board their buses from this stage.

Loan Proposal

My loan is going to help me expand my stock and also reach out to buying tenders from government institutions. Being that we are remaining with few days until the new year, I am going to increase the stock and introduce new business within megabyte computers.

I will start purchasing tenders from institutions and this loan will help me supply even before the customer pays, as most government institutions give 30-day period before you pick [up the] check after supply. Thanks Zidisha, you made me big.

    The loan was good and i did what i intended to do with the money to increase my business. I had issues with a school i supplied stationary and they really took long time to pay. Thats why at the end i delayed abit. But now they cleared and am back on track.
