About Me

My names are Elius Mumba from Kilifi county . I am a class eight leaver due to school fees problem that my parents could not afford. I have a duty to pay for my brothwers school who is in secondary level and other one who is in primary level. I can say that I am the bread winner of my family. I live at a place called basi just before the Basi primary school there is a café to your left hand side called half London. I have been struggling hard to make life ends. I am not married but my wish is get married soon. I am planning to see my brothers are getting relevant education as they are very bright in school and get good jobs so that they can help me and our family.

My Business

I run a café at Basi just close to the primary school. I have been in the business for over two years and it has been doing good since time immemorial. My customers are the school students and teachers. I have been selling green maize from the farm and cassava and most of the vendors from Kilifi twon come for the green maize and the cassava. I have making a profit of five hundred a day after paying my workers and deducting all my expenses. If I get this loan I will use it in advertising my café and my commodities. I have a dream that one day I will be selling my commodities in large quantity and make great profit.

Loan Proposal

Thank you so much for approving my account. I am sure that my business will now do fine as I am arranging to ad stock in my cafe. I have a big plan in to make an extension in my cafe of just two tables so that my clients will be able to sit comfortable and enjoy their meals greatly. At the shamba this time around I will be able to add fertilizer in the plots for them to do better.

    Dear lenders,
    I am Mr. Mumba's VM. I spoke to him and he said he has been taking care of his brother who is admitted at the hospital for a long time thus accruing a huge hospital bill. He promised to pay some money soon in spite of this problem.

    The community has indicated he has not been able to reach out to Elias, and will call me once he traces him. Thanks
