About Me
I am a 29 yr old Kenyan, a Graduate, and an entrepreneur. My childhood desire has been to create employment (not to seek employment). Many youths in Kenya seek employment, which creates a large gap between employers and employees. I want to bridge this gap by creating jobs for everyone who seek it. However, I cannot do it alone; Zidisha can help me build businesses that not only sustain my family and me but also offer sources of income to other employees. I challenge everyone to help create employment for the youth to uplift our society.
My Business
My current business deals with computer services. At the moment, my business offers PC games and repairs/maintenance. However, I need to upgrade it to offer other services such as photocopying, printing, design, and computer school. This is a gradual process, but I hope it shall come to pass as well as induce the youth to venture into businesses as well as create employment for them.
Loan Proposal
I have vision of improving the living standards of people in my remote neighborhood. At the same time, I want to create employment for the youth. I currently have 3 computers which are used for games at my shop. I'd wish to upgrade the shop by including access to the internet (converting it to a cybercafe)as this will improve my earnings as well as promote my vision. Basically, I'll need to add 8 more computers as well as introduce a computer school for computer literacy studies. Zidisha loan would therefore aid me in achieving my vision of improving life standards in my area. The 15017 I have requested may not be enough but it will come in handy in helping me move step by step as I strive to achieve my dream.
