About Me

I was born in 1987, 27 years ago in a village named Njiru, in Njiru district Nairobi County. I began primary school in 1994 at kayole one primary school. I continued with school until 2001, when I received my primary education certificate. l continued with school at Gatanga girls high school till i completed my high school in the year 2005. After high school i stayed at home, helping my parents until 3 years later when i joined zetech college for a computer coarse. I completed the course in 2009 and opened a small kiosk in kayole estate where I specialized in photocopy and printing of documents. After the business picked i shifted from my parents’ home and went to live on my own. later i got married and have a young daughter who i love so much. I live in kayole twister along kangundo road, about 6 km away from Nairobi town. The house i live in is at kayole plot number 054

My Business

I started my business 5 years ago in kayole estate. in spite of high competition in photocopy printing and computer services i love my job and i always do everything possible to make sure i always keep up with the competition. business is good because people are now going the technology way in kenya thus increasing demand for computer services. i have attracted so many customers since i have been in this business for long and wish to expand my business in-order to cater for their growing needs

Loan Proposal

When I get this loan,it will help me improve My cyber cafe services by adding one second hand computer which will cost 176.208 dollars (15,000 kes) and buy a router @ 52.8625 dollars equivalent of 4500 kes to make sure my clients can access wireless internet.Despite the fact that I still have deficit of about 105 dollars for improved services for my clients am happy that through this small loan and some more additions from my saving i will be able to offer better services to my clients. wireless internet installation will see my business income shoot up since i will more customer including those with laptops and internet enabled phones.The returns will then help me expand my cybercafe by increasing the number of computers. I should be supported because I can't afford single handedly to meet full financial requirements of the for improvement of my cybercafe due to the increase in cost of computer and technology equipments

    Thank you so much lenders for your support am really doing well despite the some challenges here and there. Am having challenges in raising the amount i had promised to raise to pay for the loan. my three year old daughter just started school and i had to pay more from my savings. having used some of the money i had saved together with the loan i got from zidisha to improve my cybercafe services am having challenges raising the whole amount i had promised per week. i wish to repay 1500 per week but since business i improving i know i will recover and pay the rest of the amount in good time. thank lenders for your support and i promise not to let you down no matter what.

    Hello Judy!

    I see there's still a long way to go to get your loan raised and just 4 hours 'till expiration.

    Please don't give up. If this loan doesn't go through, apply for a new one.

    I hope you can achieve your desired objective.
