About Me

I grew up in machakos county in a family of six. Our place the population is low, because it rarely rains and very hilly....most young people have been dragged into alcohol abuse and youth unemployment is so high. We buy food from neighboring counties at very high price, our parents really struggled to put food on the table,they depended on casual jobs to put food on the table and pay fees. I went to school where I was on and off because of fees challenge but this did not kill my dream at least to get basic education, At one point I had to drop out of school and stayed at home for three years after being sent away because I had not paid fees,This was very scary and my uncle came in where he took me back to school where he paid my fees till forth form,he took me to college where I studied embroidery for one year after searching jobs I decided to open my venture through my savings. 
I live in Machakos with my 2 children, I dream to educate my children and empower them with what I have at the moment hoping for a better tomorrow. I dream also to help single mothers who are many and the numbers growing daily to empower them to be self reliant and put some hope and encourage them

My Business

I make dresses and table mats mostly.

I started the business in the year 2007 April.

The reason I started doing business its because I wanted to meet my needs and for my four children especially after my husband left me alone for another woman with four children to take care of.

My biggest challenge is funds to enable me buy materials to make dresses and table mats constantly.
I make profits of 15000 KES which I use to meet my family needs.

My customers are friends, road passers and neighbors who know my business.

My goal is to operate large scale, create jobs and business to sustain itself and also to train many more children in the slum to be self reliant through my venture.

Loan Proposal

I am going to buy five rolls of materials to make dresses using K sh 10000 and buy five rolls of table mats at K sh 10000....

I will have boosted my stock materials which will enable me to make more dresses and table mats for my clients thus increase in revenue and profit...

My business will grow, will be more able to maintain my customers with steady production since I will be having stock to enable me attend to my customers demands, will create jobs and be more able to open more other places as I create jobs...

My life will improve, will be more able to meet the needs for my family, will pay fees for my school going childre
