About Me

Am jackson mukala born in a small village where i grew up from a young boy to who i am now. have studied from primary to high school a journey that has not been easy due to financial constraints that made my parents struggle a great deal. every time i wish to do something despite of my current situation i always understand that where there is a will there is away then work harder. for now am owning a small business that i believe in due time it will grow since have joined zidisha. the business happens to be a place where i was once employed, but in the long run the owner decided to sell the business, so i payed him like two third of the price just from my savings then the rest of the amount i was able to complete within a period of 4 months. where i live people have a culture and a habit of job seeking but i decided to overcome that and be able to own my own business.. .currently i have no family but am hopping to get one in due time. i always like sharing with friends both via one on one and social media.

My Business

my business is a service providing activity where i shave people, do pedicure and manicure for women. I always do my job excellently so i think this is why people prefer my services. I never thought of owning a barber shop untill i found myself in it, but have found it working my best and quite profiting. the business typically spend around 200 US DOLLARS monthly for the normal operation leaving out menteinance cost that may go up to 500 US DOLLARS after every six months.

Project Proposal

I request the members to help me raise some money inorder to manage Paying for my college exam fee which i need to undertake in the next one week. Thanks
