My name is Margaret Pette, the CEO of Tripple Epe Foundation which works with widows and orphans in rural Kenya.It has not been easy to receive donor funds to boost our social work of catering for the disadvantaged group in society. However, we thank the Almighty God who has seen us through the tough times. The women are able to raise funds from the artifacts that they make and sell locally in the market. We are also training them on agricultural farming for which we hope to get a volunteer to put up a Greenhouse to promote the the produce to a larger scale. Through sponsorship, some managed to be included in the GWWI Program of building Water harvesting tanks which has become a source of income for them. The community is able to get clean water from the water tanks and the women have the expertise to build tanks for those who can afford to pay for their services.
In my personal capacity, i'm an entrepreneur, running business of mpesa which is Safaricom mobile money transfer system for which i'm paid commission on the number of transactions done daily for one month.
I derive my income from the mpesa and salon business which i hope that with a little bit of capital injected into it, will result in faster and greater growth in the business.
I'll increase the mpesa float in order to earn more commission at the end of the month
