About Me

My name is Jemima Ndanu Ngui, Married with 3 children.I live in Kiambu county, Githurai 45 location.I am the fourth born in the family of 10 children.I was born in a rural village in Mwingi Sub county Kenya, studying to primary level and joined a technical institution to study dressmaking. To pay for the dressmaking course I worked as a house help for 4 years,after that I was able to leave that job and get other casual jobs.Today finally after passing through thick and thin I was able to spare some money in the beginning of this year and start a fruit vending business.Hoping that I will be able to earn and help my husband as we prepare our kids to have a better life and future.

My Business

With God's grace I started the grocery business with about $80.00 and now the revenue is about $150.00 in a month at the moment and monthly costs are $200.00.I use some part of the profit to help at home and the rest for family needs and tithe.Now that I have joined the ZIDISHA fraternity I know that with your help I will expand the business to increase the revenue and also head towards achieving my dreams,one of them being to join an adult education to study and register for the o level examination as private candidate.After that I will study further to become a ECDE teacher for the start as I aim higher than that.Blessings and thanks in advance for all the support I will receive here.

Loan Proposal

With the loan of $9.9 I will add about $7 and use the money to purchase an attractive shade Umbrella for my fruit vending business.This umbrella will be very helpful for it will produces shade from the sun that will allow the fruits to remain fresh.I believe it will increase some customers because of the shade and the fresh fruits.

    The previous loan has helped me a lot since, I used to build expand the kiosk and also add some stock. Though I face a lot of challenges during the repayment period especially at the general election period where i had to close for a long time due to tensions in my country Kenya. However I managed to pickup and pay the loan with the hope of expanding the business more and finding a new permanent store for the business. with all thanks.

    Hi lenders,

    Kindly bare with me on the issue of adjusting the repayment amount. We are in a seriously bad season in my country, daily business has gone down due to inflation. I will adjust soon when Am a bit flexible.

    Thanks.
