About Me

How much can I borrow?
First-time members start with a small test loan to build creditworthiness. After that, the amounts you can borrow will increase with each loan that you repay on time, up to a maximum of 1,014,790 KES per loan.An idealistic twenty-four-year-old, I'd been hired out of graduate school to manage overseas grants on behalf of the US government. This was my second year on the job and I already had a reputation as a maverick. To the discomfort of my colleagues, I refused to stay at the expensive hotel normally reserved for US government visitors and settled instead on a cheap hostel. The hotel cost more per day than many Nigeriens earned in a year, and I couldn't stand the disparity.

My Business

Chiropractors diagnose and treat patients whose health problems are associated with the body's muscular, nervous, and skeletal systems, especially the spine. Chiropractors believe interference with these systems impairs normal functions and lowers resistance to disease. They also hold that the spinal or vertebral dysfunction alters many important body functions by affecting the nervous system and the skeletal imbalance through joint or articular dysfunction.

This chiropractor's approach to health care is holistic, emphasizing the patient's overall health and wellness. Betcher Chiropractic recognizes that there are many factors that can affect one's wellness including but not limited to: exercise, diet, rest, environment, and hereditary. Betcher Chiropractic provides natural, drugless, nonsurgical health treatments, relying on the bodies inherent recuperative functions.

Loan Proposal

With my third loan, I will diversify my farming activity so as to ensure that at any given time I have an income coming my way, the market is unpredictable and as I observed in the past, relying on one cash crop is not the best idea, the weather is conducive for various cash crops eg peas, cabbages, beans, carrots etc.
My poultry business is not badly off despite earlier setback, My land is ready am waiting for rains starting April where I will start implementation of the project.
