Am Rehema Anzanze,born in 1976 and a mother of 5 children,i was born in kakemega,in western part of Kenya,we were born 8 children and am a fourth born.i was educated to class four (4) and i dropped out of school because of the difficult s in our family that we were many and little income that could not take all of us to school
i moved out of kakamega were i was born and married,i left the father of my children after he started treating me like a slave,i came to mombasa and stated working as a maid in many people's houses,i went through a lot of challenges and finely i decided to started my own small business of making Swahili dishes on the streets and selling,i make Irish crisps and sum bus
Mombasa is a land for swahili and arab people mostly and they like Swahili foods and i found easy for me to make,i get money out of it to cater for my 1 child i have and myself.ather children are grown up.
i like orphans so much and most of my free time,i visit them,
make crisps and sambus and sale to people.
the products moves because the were we are is suitable for that business and there for its a business that moves faster and requires little capital to start
i decided to do this business because of the little capital i have and it does not need much work or has no much expenses.
i do not pay revenue or rent,i buy products and that is all
the profits i get,i invest back in the business and pay school fees for my child,pay my house rent and buy some things for orphans once in a while
when i get this loan,
i will add stock in my business by buying the products
i will a full suck of Irish potatoes at 30 dollars
i will also buy wheat flour,green beans (ndengu) for sambus at 30 dollars
i will buy cooking oil for 10 dollars
the balance 30 dollars will replace the 3000 shillings charges that i will send to zidisha before i get the money when the loan is fully funded
I believe the profit will grow to like 2000 shillings per month.
i hope when the profit increase,i will increase they help i give to orphans
