About Me

My name is Violet juma. I am the last first born in family of 5. I went to Alupe primary school where I sat for for my primary school certificate.I was admitted to Kolanya girls secondary school,but had to drop at form 3 due to lack of school fees. I went back home worked as a house help for my neighbor who later offered to pay for my school fees. I went to back to school and completed well,I passed well and expecting to join tertiary institution soon so as to further my education.
I keep poultry and do horticulture farming to save for my school fees. currently I have 30 local poultry and 0.5 acres kale's farm.
I come from the luhya community ,we hold the bakhayo cultural day once a year during this time we do traditional dance and singing,there is cock fighting ,it is always enjoyable.
I like watching soccer and playing netball during my free time.I also teach literature in the nearby school during my free time since they dont have a teacher .I am also a seasonal blogger.

My Business

I keep poultry mainly for eggs and meat and grow horticultural crops for sale to the nearby day school . I also sale my products to the neighbors .
Local eggs are very nutritious and most people prefer them,they are also more expensive and the demand is high. My kale's are always in demand and rarely do I supply my market sufficiently,the demand far outweighs supply.
I chose this business because it required less start up capital and the two ventures supplement each other making it cheaper to run i.e I use kale's to feed my poultry and the poultry provides manure for my crops.
In a moonth I spend between $30-$50 on transport ,labour and equipments. in a good month my revenues are $250.
A big portion of my revenues goes to school fees for my siblings ,I value eduction and do my best to keep them in school. I save for my college fees and take care of my families general expenses .

Loan Proposal

Hello lenders
I am pleased to present my second loan request. I wish you help me buy a kapsack sprayer which goes for $120 in the market. I will use my profits and saving to fill the $20 gap. The sprayer will be of great importance in my farm since it will help me get rid of insects that destroy my vegetables reducing quality. my vegetables will be more healthier of better quality and will therefore fetch better prices in the market.Thank you
