About Me

Am ruth nganga a sister to catherine and moses nganga and my parents mr and mrs samuel nganga, life in kenya is generally balanced not good not bad,
i went to nyeri girls high school before taking a diploma in fashion desigh at kirinyaga college after college i went back home and good enouh my wonderful parents had planed on what i will do after school so they helped me advance my skills by getting me a job in nairobi at a family friend company which deals with fashion and desighn.
I dint have experience at all so i was introduced to a team that helped me and after two months i adapted to the changes and began making my own desighns.
i like spending time with friends and looking at magazines especialy once that have clothing contents.
my sister and brothers are in school it will be a honore for me to be a role model to them so i try as much as possible to achieve and surpport them in what they will want to be.

My Business

Am employed at sketchers company as a fashion designer i draw clothing sketch and suggest on the materials to be used the a team which does folding and finishings takes over the rest.
Am paid in commision so the more the sale the more i get at the end of the month.
in a good month i make 22000 kenya shillings which i use as my transport and upkeep after small savings of 4000ksh.
the cloths we make are sold to boutigues around town and its outskirts
i love my job like the picture in my profil is a ladies suit that i did the desighn last december.

Loan Proposal

thank you
I would use the amont to buy a seaweing machine this machine will enable me o be making cloths at home and sell locally to friends and boutigues around my region.
i will also be able to teach my mother how to make cloths.
i found this to be necessary becauser most of my friend keep asking me to bring them clothes like the once i wear also because can get materials at a cheaper price.
have been paying for the machine in instalments since last year december and i now have a bqalance of 165 usd so if i get this loan i will top my last months saving and buy the machine.
thank you.
