About Me

Rahab wambui is my name. I hails from Mt Kenya region Nyeri county, in particular. born and brought in a very humble background. Am born in a family of 8 , 5 handsome gents and 2 beautiful Ladies.Am the 2nd born in that family. i went to school in my home village , mweiga , that's where i did up to O level. It was God how i came to finish my studies because of the struggles that my parents were going through. in our home we are farmers so my parents used to plant beans and maize, after harvesting them, they took them to school to pay my school fees. However , that did not mean that i was not to grow beyond there. I later managed also to start farming and that's what am doing to date.

My Business

I do farming business at my home village where i plant different varieties of food crops. I grow vegetables, onions, beans maize and potatoes. Thats what i have been doing since high school .This has really helped me in paying my little girl school fees . It has been awesome doing such a job because in farming its the only job that will never loose market because all people whether in rural or auburn areas must eat. So that's how i decided to be doing this work which gives me some cash though not much at least i can say am doing something

Loan Proposal

Thank you for another chance my lenders. Want still to purchase some onion seeds worth 179 dollars. I will also use the rest 105 dollars for the land preparations and purchase some fertilizer ang some agro-chemicals. This will help me increase my production and also my income. Am expecting my income to raise from 150 dollars to 300. Thanks as you consider me for funding
