About Me

I am Carolyne a Kenyan born and bred in rural kenya .I am a diploma holder holding a salaried job and also engaging in side business of baking/selling cakes for occasions and also doing online sales of perfumes and handbags.

I am single mother of one son in Secondary school and also taking of my mother who is suffering dementia.
I currently have financial difficulties due to the medical cost of my mother hence i have found myself in a financial struggle . I therefore seek Finances to pay my sons outstanding school fees of Kshs. 40,000.00 He is currently at home for the last two weeks as i have not managed to raise the funds. In a weeks times they are scheduled to sit the end of term examinations and i really do not wish for him to miss out.

I realize that the funds I seek are far beyond my current borrowing capability . I humbly request anyone out there who could kindly assist so that my son does not miss out on his studies and I will be eternally grateful.

My Business

I decided to engage in side business as a way of making that extra cash and also as a hobby. I have tried out several venture including buying and selling second hand clothes and shoes as well as dealing in hair and beauty products like lotions, creams jewellery and hair accessories.

The reason i have chosen to engage in cakes is the changing trend i have taken notice of in my community where people are celebrating occasions and events taking place in their life by holding parties or cutting cake for commemoration.

For the beauty products the ladies and women love fashion and changing trends hence these are items they shall keep purchasing almost on a monthly basis.
I am also trying to venture into selling hand bags

Loan Proposal

I wish to borrow funds to offset my son's school fees of Usd.400.00 (Kes. 40,000.00) He is currently out of school due to the arrears.
The reason is because I have incurred extra unexpected medical bills while seeking treatment for my mother who has been diagnosed with dementia.

My prayer is to find the finances so that my son can resume school and carry on with his studies without been sent home for school fees.
I will be highly and eternally grateful should my request be considered favorably.

Thank You and God blessings.

    Although a little late due to medical costs, Carolyne repaid her loan in full. I would definitely lend to her again. Best wishes to you and your son, Carolyne. I hope he is able to stay in school this year.
