About Me

Dear Lenders, i am Justina Tembo, born in a family of 4 and i am the second born. I am a mother of 1 child and already my child is in school because i am a Teacher by professional, i have made it that way so that he becomes clever quickly. I was trained for free to be a community teacher because i volunteered to be teaching the young ones especially the orphans in our community and now i opened a night school for the mothers who have never been to school and i am charging them ZMW25 weekly and the number has increased and the demand for seats is on my neck. They are performing well in my class and they are learning how to read and write so fast. I am so happy and impressed. As my life has not been all that good during my childhood, i had alot of issues with my step mother where i was not encouraged to work hard at school and i used to spend most of my time in her businesses in markets. But thank God i finished my high school although my results were poor, and i will be seating for exams again soon.
Actually, it has been my dream to own a classroom like this where i really wanted to contribute to the community the good works as a teacher. Women are very happy and they go on telling others to come and join. This will make them educated and even find it easy to go for training in any field they would want to. The land and the culture of the people in our community is so good, they are involved in farming mostly and the land is so good for farming .

My Business

I am doing Teaching and i have two classes i am handling, the orphans and adults like mothers who have never been to school and they come in the afternoon for their lessons, and many of them have already been able to read and write just after 6 months in class. This has happened to be a wake up call for every mother and even fathers who are willing to join.

Loan Proposal

I will buy more seats for the night school class for women to seat on during their evening lessons. I am saving ZMW300 for only 7 more seats in my class room and that will at least help me separate them into 2 classes and different time. And i will benefit because i will be having funds to support the school. And i will at the end of the week make more than ZMW1500 and this will be used to support the school and repaying of my Loan because they pay weekly ZMW25 each pupil.
