About Me

my name is Samuel ombongi morata, am a Kenyan citizen living in Nairobi which is the capital city Kenya.
I come from kisii county, Nyamache district, Nyamache division, Bass central location and Emenwa sub-location and bonyang'ande village.
I grew up in poor background whereby my parents struggled to provide our basic needs. I was born in a family of six sons, me being the first born. I started schooling at a nearby primary school and managed to attain a mean grade of c plain, my parents were doing farming to genarate income for my school fees, i stayed one full year do to luck of fees, then later i joined a nearby secondary school and i attained a mean grade of a B-,then there after i was supported by my uncle who is a brother to my mother, and i joined college in Nairobi where i pursued diploma in Electrical engineering, I attained a credit pass, i graduated a year 2010.year 2011 i was employed as a technician in kalolwanga Engineering, i was earning 9000kes per month, there after i was married to one wife and we were blessed to have one daughter.

My Business

Due to increased responsibility to cater for my family, the amount that I was earning was too little to cater for the needs in my family.
I decided to start a small business of a photocopy shop, I expanded further and added a studio for photos and passports, and also selling of movies .

Loan Proposal

Once again i have come to you lenders to humbly request you to fund my laptop and mobile photo studio project.As i have already informed you the previous loan it assisted me so much to add more variety of movies and music .I was able to gather 65000kes for a period of 3 months,i managed to buy a digital photo camera at 53000kes,i also bought utensils in my house at 5000kes,and office chair at 4000kes,the rest i paid school fees for my brother who is at a local academy.
Therefore lenders am also in needy of money to purchase a laptop because my digital printer can not work without a computer or a laptop which will cost 30000kes,also am required to buy a mobile studio for photos and passports which will also cost 9000kes.So please my lenders find time to look at my loan proposal project.I will appreciate so much for your consideration.God bless you so much for you support so far.

    The loan that i have just completed paying recently i used to purchase apiece of land at kangundo road a place called malaa,it costed me 200,000 kes to buy this piece of land,i have leased this piece of land to a developer ,currently he has put a temporary structure as class rooms for a private school academy .
    The school will kick of on January, 2017 and he has promised to be paying 30,000 kes per month as the rent for a period of 3 years.My lenders honestly speaking if this project goes through and already it has gone through it will be a very big advance to me and my life in general is going to improve so much,and all this success has come through you my lenders and zidisha in general.
    As i move forward i appreciate and thank you my lenders ,let God bless you for your support towards my life.
