About Me

My names are Carol Wangui Njogu.I'm 29 years old.I come from a humble christian family background .I am a single mother of two children,a boy (Charles Mugane)and a girl (Everline Mugure).They are 12 years and 9 years respectively.My children do attend Imara-Daima Preparatory school which is located about 15 minutes walk from my residence.
I am a church member at African Inland church under Reverend Mary wairumu Muraya. I am also a choir leader.I do the business of selling second hand clothes. This business has really changed my life situation because it has given me money that has enabled me to pay my rent, bills and even take my children to school.

My Business

My business is located here at Kawangware Market.I own a small store called Urembo outfits.It involves selling of imported second-hand clothes.I started this business four years ago.My business is licensed under the Kiambu County Government authorities and issued with a valid annual single permit license to operate the business.
I sell mostly women dresses. This is because women clothes moves much faster than men and children clothes.I usually buy the goods at Gikomba Market which i mostly buy at a wholesale price and later resells at a retail price.From this business i have managed to take my children to a good school for the quality education and also it has sustained my daily needs.
I am requesting the Zidisha Micro-finance to fund my business so as to add more bales of clothes which i have identified their source at Eastleagh,Nairobi and at Kampala,Uganda.I believe that once we walk hand in hand,my business will grow more that it is today.It is my prayer that Zidisha team will consider my proposal and approve my loan.Thank you in advance.

Loan Proposal

I take this opportunity to thank all my lenders for the support they gave me when they funded my first loan.May God bless you. I am hereby applying for my second loan. I will use this money to buy more stocks of clothes. My business has been doing well. What I have been lacking is enough stock of clothes to sell. I also intend to paint my store. The painting will make it look nice and attractive to my customer. I am hereby appealing to lenders to fund my loan once again. I do really appreciate your help.
