About Me
My names are Betty chepkoskei i was born in Nandi county my parents passed away and i moved in to staying with my grandmother in Uasin - Gishu county were i did my primary education and secondary education, Am now pursuing a course in heath records at the Moi university west campus.
I ventured into doing side hustling jobs washing cloths to students and people around the community so to sustain my upkeep in school.
From this side hustling i have managed to be comfortable in school and not to stress my grandmother with small basic requirements.
My brothers and sisters are into business while the younger one is staying with my aunt in the city were he is going to school.
My Business
I offer washing services to local community and fellow students this job is now sustain my needs in school i need things like soap, money for buying bread, pens writing materials finance education trips and many needs that forced me to do this kind of job.
I could not depend on my grand mother as she and my elder brothers supports my school fees their some small needs that i have to cater for and this is why i do such job which is helping me a lot.
I have introduced selling of socks and tights to fellow students and so fortunate this business piked well and with my phone many students call me for deliveries.
Loan Proposal
Given the loan of 37934 kenya shillings i assume its equivalent to 380 us dollars, I will use the money to pay for my school fees for this academic year,
My fees is arrears of 350 us dollars, 30 us dollars i will use to buy a small stock of socks and ladies tights which i will sell to fellow students.
My grandmother and elder brothers are the once responsible for my school fee but unfortunately i they could not clear last year fees and this has forced me to be skipping classes i opt to pay the fees with zidisha loan and they will be helping me to pay the loan as i also pay with my side business income.
