My Business

I did electrical engineering NITA(National Industrial Training Authority) exam grade III on solar technology last year December 2017 and passed. I would like to proceed to grade II this year. These exams are very important because after that I will be given a license for installation and maintenance of solar systems. This certification will help me in securing solar installation jobs as people are going green here in Kenya.Am kindly requesting for a loan from Zidisha to help me book the July 2018 exams.The examination fee is 95 dollars.

Each seedling goes for 10 shillings(0.1 dollar). Therefore, 12,000 seedlings will give a return of 1200 dollars in 8 to 12 months.The expected profit is 1119 dollars. the excess amount i will manage to get from friends.
The profits from the proceeds will go back to improving the farm structure and maintenance.
