About Me

My name is Joyce Wamucii born and bred in Central part of Kenya. I come from a family of three and my parents are small scale farmers. I attended primary and secondary school and later joined a college where I did a course in Food and Beverage. I later did a computer course before relocating to Mombasa where I got a job as food manager.

I am married and my husband is a businessman in the same town.
I currently work in Mombasa in a fast food joint and run a side business at the same time. I am a hard working person who is always looking for opportunities to grow.

My Business

Apart from my salaried job, I run a side business where I do bureau services such as photocopying documents, lamination and binding works. My main clients are college students who bring their materials to be photocopied, bound and related services. I also get a fair share of business from the surrounding population.

My business would be more productive if I offer more services like typing. For me to this, I need a computer and printer and my savings cannot allow me to do it for now. I therefore need this push in form of Zidisha loan to enable me achieve this goal.

I get a modest net income of about $200 per month but I am hoping that this will go up as the business grows.

Loan Proposal

I thank you for giving me the loan that has transformed my life and that of my family.I wish to set up a cyber cafe because of the opportunity that has presented it self in my business being a place where there are students and the need to read online and to do researches ,i have seen this as a golden opportunity to set up a cyber which i hope will be of great help to the people that i will employ and to the students within this area.
