I was born in a rural village ,and was the third born in a family of 8 children , my dad passed on when I was 9 years and my mum raised us single alone.when I completed primary education there was no money to take me to secondary school.
I decided to join polytechnic to study art and design,I learn about molding,drawing and beading . while still in college I could make beautiful beads and sell them to my fellow students. from the beginning I knew I was in business.
After completing college I had n capital to start a business and had to borrow $200 from my friends mother to buy raw materials for beads,I couldn't afford renting a room and so had to hawk my products,it paid off and I was able to pay off the loan within one month. six month later I was able to open my shop.
I when I am not working , I find time to visit the sick,children homes and the very poor in the society and spend time with them and give them hope.
I provides unique paintings,t-shirts,curios, flower pots and printed mugs. I usually make them and display them in my room but sometimes some clients come with there own specific requirements.
the goods are always in demand because of the quality work .
i choose these kind of business because I loved art work and innovation. it has a room for expansion to include house decoration and land scape and that is where I am looking forward to reach.
In a month my costs are $200 and my income are $500 . I use the money I make as profit mainly for business expansion,supporting my family and use 10% to support the less advantaged in the community eg orphans,aged and people with disabilities through purchase of basics. Thank you dear lender.
I hope you have started February on a good note and you ,your family and neighbours are well. I am well here and happy to join zidisha family. I am requesting for a first loan to help me buy sewing machine that I would use to make plan t-shirts for printing. The new sewing machine cost$110 and I would add money from my savings to acquire one.The sewing machine is very vital in my business and would help me save a lot of money since I currently buy ready made T-shirts for printing.I would also improve the quality of t-shirts. thank you in advance.
