About Me

My name Mirriam Ndule Wela, I live in mtomondomi,in mtwapa town.Am a pastor and i also am a Gospel artist, i sing and also drama. I work with different schools and churches . I am maried to Joseph Muthini we are blessed with 3 children, the first is in form two, the second is in class eight and the last is in class five.I went to school until the secndary level.Being raised as first born in the family made me strong.I wanted to set a good example to the church and the community in general, in hard working and devortion. I believed that it was Me and my husband, not my husban alone would be the only one providing for the family because he didn't have a stable job.So we had to come up witha reasonable way of earning a living.Before I started selling second hand clothes. Life was not that good on our side you can't depend one person and the children needs at home or at school , providing food, paying school fees, etc.In aday I make like ksh,2000 to ksh3000 sometimes less and ksh1000 for family usage.

My Business

I sell second handcloths here they are called mtumba , The prices per bunch some time goes up or down depending on the arrival at that time. 1 bunch goes for ksh,1500 to ksh2000.selling the second hand cloths as I am doing most of the times we are on the move going to every market place at the market days ,Everything dont go to themarket some have to remain with me at home were i sell some at the market. with the help of my husban we make alote per day and that we give thanks for.By the loan I took from Bidii Self help group that when I aske for my husband help .Per month we save like ksh,54, 000 per month taking ksh,15000 for school fee and ksh,8000 for house rent. plus ksh,6000 for transport and food for my husband during the day. With the savings i can use to repay my loan and also expand my business.
