About Me

My name is violet Mwengwe, from lusaka, Zambia. I am single and a student of the University of Zambia, majoring in Business Economics. My family is unable to sponsor me financially, so with my scholarship money I was able To open up a small restaurant, which I started in my dormitory by delivering food to other students on campus. With time I have been able to rent a small shop on campus.
I am a business oriented person. Always striving for better.

My Business

I am currently running a restaurant in one of the small university shops.
I mainly prepare fast foods and local cuisine for students around campus
And also make room deliveries.
Am really proud of the process made.
And I hope my zidisha family is able to help me achieve more.

Loan Proposal

I want to thank zidisha for funding my previous loan. I was able to do some renovations. Though my project is not completely finished, as building is somewhat expensive.
With this next loan, i plan on finalizing on the few works left to be done.
Like the roofing and windows. Hopefully I can finish with my next loan.

Income Source

Business has been slow, because of my renovations, but that hasn’t stopped me from paying loan.
I will continue with the same mindset, until my loan is paid off.
So that my lenders are able to help me again next time.

    I want to thank my lenders for funding my loan. I want to buy cheffing dishes, and more plates and cooking essentials.
    With this coming Easter holiday. I hope on giving my fellow students that are unable to travel back home with the feeling of home food.
    Thank you for making this happen for me

      Hi Patrick,
      Am sorry for replying to you late. As I am always busy. I never have so much time to be on my phone.
      I am in my third year. I am graduating august 2023.
      It’s not easy. Most of the times my older sister stands in for me when I can’t. She quit high school because our parents couldn’t afford to take her, me and my brother to school.
      For deliveries, my young brother who recently graduated high school helps.
