I went to school in makunga primary, Namirama girls hi9gh school where I completed my fourth form.
I got married immidiatly unfortunately my marriage did not work. My husband threw me out after he found new love catch and went a head to make love in my presence and on my matrimonial Bed.
I went back to my parents and fortunately was taken to college to persue a certificate in Early child hood Education ECDE at Kaimisi technical college.
I started a small kindergarten at home in a certain church where i have fifteen children enrolled in nursary.
To make ends meet i cook chips at road side after school to feed my family of two childen.
I believe that one day things will work well for me in life.

My Business

I started a small school with fifteen children who pay 1500/= per month. this enable me ran the school and at-least to see to it that children around our home get knowledge.
After school I fry chips and sell to taxi drivers and motor bike drivers. In a good day I get at-least 1000/= per day. This makes my total earning to something like 32000/= per month which enables me take care of my self and my children not to bother my aging parents.

    I reschedule my installment upward since I have missed several installments. This is due to strike that has hit our country by teachers and also some of them have turned against private schools to join them leading to disruption of my programmes.

    Hello lenders,
    As we come close to the closure of schools next week, I want to say am grateful for your support which saw me through with buying a few items to support my children at school. My parents during last meeting in preparation for school closing ceremony they echoed the efforts put in by the school management in providing children with materials to support learning activities.
    This also increased enrollment by 6% a total of seven children joined baby class from neighboring school a thing I take bride in. In Totality I want to say though times have been tough but I want to thank the Zidisha family for being there
    for me and my children. Thanks to you all.

    The situation is a bit tight. Am on parents trying to push them to complete fees arrears. Will soon update you and increase my installments once am over.
    Thanks.

    This the time parents are tied up with harvesting. And payments are at times low. since I entirely depend on my job which is low at the moment I wouldn`t want to be in arrears for all that time when things seam not to be moving.

      Hi Poline,

      If you need to temporarily reduce your installment to an amount you can afford to pay right now, please go ahead and make that small payment. To do this, please log into your Zidisha account and click on "Adjust Installment Amount," and follow the instructions there. You may then increase your installment again when you are able.

      Regards,
      Alex, Zidisha Team

    Hello lenders,
    I confirm that I received the requested amount of kshs. 12,886.
    I used the amount to buy a few text books and crayons that cost kshs. 11058.
    This will relieve parents of extra costs of buying the same.
    This will also help in making the school attractive hence increase admission.
    Thanks very much For your help in financing this project.

    I thank you lenders for funding my loan to fully.
    I am now sure though one week into opening schools will go buy crayons, class readers and drawing books.
    This will shelve parents the burden of buying the same and make the whole thing attractive to them and others hence more admission.

    First I want to say thank you very much for the support you accorded me in buying plastic chairs for my children at school.
    This has elevated the school since when the kids say they sit on plastic chairs to their friends at home the following day you find more kids just to confirm and later nag their parents to transfer them to my school.
    I also believe that when schools re open this Monday 5th I expect a few enrollments since the parents believe that the school is headed on the right direction since the progress is seen and witnessed.
    Due to the schools opening soon I felt I complete my loan at least early to get another one in readiness for the opening but unfortunately my credit limit has not increased. But I believe with time Everything will be well thanks
