About Me

my father became incapacitated by stroke while i was in primary school and my mother was left to fed for the family and through my high school life.

I knew I had to take a brave approach to life.

life was not easy as during the weekend and holidays worked for casual jobs in the neighbors farms to supplement the little my mother could manage to raise. after high school, I passed very well but life was not merciful on me.

I got into casual jobs in construction sites and later my uncle who stayed in Nairobi asked me to join his family and would sponsor me to attend a course. since i didn't perform poorly in business and agriculture subjects i chose accounting. i didn't know after the 1st semester he would lose his job and i dropped out of college.

i thought of the next move forward as giving up in the city and knowing that the village had no life for me, i decided to go back to the college director and asked him if he could take me as college cleaner and be remunerated in the form of attending the lectures(though he called my uncle to confirm it) he obliged. after years of tarmacking in search of a job after college, i applied for a job in a company and i was taken as an accounts assistant.
I am in accounting department and I have a passion in business.

My Business

I have since learned that in my area demand for single rentals is plummeting I need to change my model to longvtern sustainable moves that guarantees me payoffs on fixed timelines.

I have decided to get bricks to minimize on cost and I need cement for lintel.

I have an old peugeot to get Sand , gravel and general construction transport and this I able to save and invest in finishing and nice interiors.

Loan Proposal

i need the window which costs $50 and this is after i have done the door as shown in the picture by the help of Zidisha funding.

The limit is $15.07 which i will add to what i have to complete the initiative. my target is to have the limit increase sine i have always repaid before the due date.
