About Me

I am an early retiree government officer. The government was broke some years back hence retiring some of us.

My Business

I had to come home and do something for my survival. I kept livestock and cultivated various crops. Tea is the Major cash crop here. I own a shop and a posho(grinding) mill in the nearest trading centre

After top dressing of my tea farm with fertilizer, there is higher growth of tea leaves. I am unable to complete plugging the tea leaves alone next month.

I have engaged two persons to plug for me. This will cause me $77 which I done have.



my g requires service. I need to replace the bearings of the mill and the rings of piston, cylinder head gasket of the engine. This will cost me about $37 which I don't have.

Loan Proposal

buy chemicals for spraying livestock and weeding my tea farm

    Today 28/01/29 was a good day for me because I realized that my loan was fully funded.

    I am very grateful to my lenders who have funded my loan. This money will help me pay for workers plugging my tea.

    This time of the year is when most people are broke and me included. This is the time when children are going back to school. I have two children in university, one in secondary school and two in primary.

    I also that the zidisha organization and its staff which have enabled me to get this help
