About Me

I am a teacher by profession and I own a pre-primary school located in Majengo area of Mombasa city. The Kenya system of education requires that a child undergoes 3 years of pre-primary education at age 3 years before joint class 1 at an age of 6 years.

I was born in Mombasa and I recently graduated from Pwani university doing with a degree of bachelor of education in early childhood. Am the last born in our family. I am married with two sons who are still in school. My husbands helps me in running the school.

I am a member of the Seventh Day Adventist church where I play an active role in church activities. I also participate in community work from time to time.

My Business

My school has a total of one hundred children distributed as follows, Pre unit 3 - 40 children, Pre unit 2 - 30 and Pre unit 1 30 children respectively. Each child pays $35 including a feeding program.

Most of the children come from the nearby slum areas where they are living under poverty that's why a feeding programme is a must. I have employed two teachers who also work as caretakers of their respective classes.

My business has made steady progress over time due to hard work and good will from the surrounding community and of course the support of Zidisha.

Loan Proposal

As stated above, I run a school which is located in the middle of a slum area. The parents of most of my learners have a modest income and I charge very minimal tuition fee to keep the school going. Occasionally I get support from organizations and individual well wishers.

I started a feeding program well over a year ago and this has attracted more pupils to the school. This has increased the demand for food and I wish to construct a bigger and better equipped kitchen. I will be getting most of the food supplies from well wishers and so my main hurdle is to get the kitchen in place.

Thank you lenders.
