About Me

I am Caroline Atieno Ndege the mother of one son and three daughters in my family. I went though my primary education in Jusa primary school and later join Jusa secondary school after my primary completion, I went through very tough time during my secondary school because i came from a poor family hence raising fees was quite difficult.
Just by God's grace I kept in the struggle and hard work till form three second term where I lost one of my parents hence it even become more difficult to proceed with my education due to high financial required for fee and i couldn't find any well wisher hence i stopped my education at that level and could do little to keep my crucial needs. So I managed to raise small capital and started small business away from home due to hard living and find my new survival techniques.
The land am living is close to the lake hence majorly the main source of income of living hood depends on the lake as fishing is the main economic in the region. My so wants to be a Software developer and my two daughters opt to be great nurses in the future will the youngest daughter wants to be a teacher when she grow up. My pat time I majorly attend bible studies and also sometimes hang around to visit my grandparents in far areas where they live.

My Business

I am running clothes business at Uhanya center where I sell shoes, school uniforms, sandals,clothes and shirts . I being that I stayed nearby the center I had to to start this business because of inconvenience provision of products and services to the highly demanding customer coming within the villages Generally it too required little capital to start this business and set it running. I incur little revenue of KES 500 that I pay monthly as my rent and KES1200 as revenue where am operating my business. The outcome profit I too started a small temporary stall for selling mangoes, kales, avocados, oranges and grains in small quantities . I use some little income fro the business to partly pay school fees for my two daughters one in St Cecilia Namenya Secondary school form three and the other being in class six Rapogi primary school above the other son and a daughter in the various colleges .
Being one of the bread winner in the family I too manage the family daily chores hence raising the standard of living. Though its a bit hectic but I find it the only option as I came from the humble family and background.

Loan Proposal

I wish to increase my stocks e.g clothes and shoes in large bulk besides my stall business.This may cost roughly $89 but I have manage to save almost 2/4 of the whole amount. The little stock I had previously is out of fashion hence requires new stock to boost there sales and increase demand of my customers.
I hope to fetch around $5 a day,that is more than $30 in a month.I will use the income partly to fund my stall business hence increase my daily and monthly income profit.
