About Me

Im a mother of two, happily married to my loving husband, i have been doing farming for the last two years, i live in a community that work in unity, i have been to help two orphans by paying them school fees and also proving with clothing and other needs, seeing them achieve their goals is my priority, my small farm i have been able to turn it into a small greenhouse which earns me some good money in a month.

My Business

My business is an agribusiness where by i plant vegetables and sell them in the ever ready market of tomatoes and kales, i have been able to venture in a new market of cauliflower the business has turned my 5000 into 50000 in a spurn of 3months i have been able to use the profit to get more seeds and also some to pay the fees for my two children and also the orphans. And with the help from zidisha i believe i will be able to make a great impact both to my life and to the life of others

Loan Proposal

Thank you dear lenders for your continued support, after renting the piece of land and planting the vegetables i was hit by lack of rain in my area and i had to start irrigating my crops with water from a borehole in my home, this would have been easy if i had a generator and an irrigation pipes, with this new loan i want to acquire some pipes and a second hand generator which i will use to pump water from the borehole and later supply the water to the farm using drip irrigation, the cost of the generator is about 130$ and the pipes will cost around 60$ with this new loan i am hoping to stop relaying on rain and be an all season farmer. The expected profit will be after a month, the first harvest i can sell about 100$ and after a week the second harvest can make around 150$, at the end of season the estimated profit will be around 400$, Thank you
