About Me

Hello good people,I am Ceciliah Bhoke. Having completed O Level education, I joined a fine art institution to study Graphics Design. I am 25 years old. I am talented in graphic designing, painting and screen printing and as much as I don’t have a lot but I offer my skills in mentorship programmes to my fellow youths. I train them to design business cards, brochures, diaries, complimentary slips and burial programmes, also wedding cards.
I started as a freelance graphics designer appealing slowly while in college so as to support my siblings since i am the first born in a family of six and we have been brought up by my mom only. Through my business i have been able to support my siblings financially for their school fees and upkeep, thus i have been able to train them on the business.
I will be able to pay the loan offered to me from my design business.

My Business

I design creatively inspiring visuals for graphic design. I work from home and sometimes i am forced to go to the cyber cafe in town to use their facilities. and I produce quality thus I always get referrals. The design work rewards me with $ 250 monthly which i use for home improvement and part of the money i use for upkeep and food. I also support my siblings and above all, i pay a tenth of it as tithe to my local church.
I realized I get so much work sometimes that it is overwhelming that I have to outsource from designers with facilities to do it.
At the moment, I am mentoring my two siblings who have finished their O Levels and they have positive attitude towards graphic design.
I really enjoy doing graphics and since I have trained and mentored my brothers , I am sure my sales will tremendously increase thus I will be able to service the loan.
With the loan, I will buy more equipments i.e
A laptop worth $ 150 which i can use to design more work as it is portable and it aint as a desktop when there is no power it will mean that i will not be able to deliver the artworks on time.

Loan Proposal

Dear Lenders,
Investing in my business will be a great achievement not only to me but to my family and fellow youths. I am requesting for a loan of $108 to purchase a laptop to boost my my production.
I have been involved in mentorship programmes as i voluntary teach graphic design to youth groups in the community.
I will make a profit of $ 150 which will be double my profit at the moment.
Since i am freelance designer, i mostly work from home which sometimes is inconveniencing due to power blackouts and the desktop is bulky for me to walk with it. With a laptop it will be easier for me to manoeuver and thus deliver on time.
I have manpower backup from my two siblings since i mentored their journey in this industry.Therefore, with this additional equipment i will actually achieve a financial goal. I am looking forward to your consideration for me to achieve this goal.
