My Business

My business name is Sharon secondary school.It is in naivasha town.I started it in January 2012.I got my students through advertising (By putting posters on posts)It has 25 students.My income comes school fees that the parents pay for their students.The school is doing well despite the challenges that i do face.Some parents straggle to pay school fees for their children but others pay well.I wont loose hope since since there are big and well established businesses which encounter the same challenges.Am hoping for positive response from you.

Loan Proposal
