About Me

My name is Grace Wanjiru Gichanga. Some years back when l was still in school my dad passed on. we' ve been brought up in hardships though we never lucked the basic needs. So in my childhood l learned early how to be independent. l worked hard in school and l was able to gain basic knowledge and that has really contributed to my life positively. Am now married with two kids. A Boy 14yrs and a girl 10yrs.

My Business

Am currently employed and l have a monthly salary. But besides employment, l do small scale farming. l thought of farming after realizing l don't get very fresh vegetables whenever am interested in buying. And so l started farming a variety of vegetables for my own use, and later expanded to farming for business. The profit l get. l use to assist my mum back at home and also help in doing shopping for my home.

Loan Proposal

Am planning to pay full year secondary fee for my son who is in form 2. This will enable him learn peacefully without being sent home for overdue fee balances. I will also be able to plan myself on how to budget for my salary and also how l can enlarge my farming business.

I sincerely thank all my Lenders for having faith in me. With my last loan, I was able to enlarge my farm, I was also able to increase different varieties of vegetables on the farm. The profit I acquired helped me pay school fees for my kids, especially my son who is going to high school next year. Thanks.
