I am Jane Atieno born in 1985 at Uyoma Kobong’ village, Siaya County in Kenya. I attended Pala primary school where I did my KCPE and got a certificate thereafter I joined Fast link computer training centre in Mbita and got Certificate in Computer applications.
I have experience a lot of difficulty towards my success. I am a total orphan who was left at a tender age and lived with my uncle who could not afford paying my education fees to further my education. My life experience has been through agonistic walk that I had gone through since my parents departed. I had come to a situation whereby getting something to eat is a dream of the day. This situation forced me to work for various people in the homestead just to get something small for daily living. Through God’s grace I managed to save whatever I got from the hard work.
I came with a mind of starting a business after sharing my story with well-wishers who could urge me to continue and never to lose hope for such a walk is also part of life. One day a well-wisher called me and suggested that I start small business. She agreed to help me raise money and start a computer shop being that I had experience to operate computer shop. She organized for a fund drive and we managed to purchase 2 computers and a printer. She helped me find a room in Mbita town and subsequently started to offer computer services. Today the business has picked on well and by the help of Zidisha I have managed to serve more customers.
I have applied for this loan to help add more computer services equipment. I will use it to purchase more photocopy papers, staple machine, Office Glue, Note books for sale and files. This will enhance the business and more clients will now get the services with ease.
