About Me

i am kenyan citizen. i am married with three children. my husband is a teacher at mugaa primary school. my firstborn is called john gichuhi. he is currently working with motorcycle in nakuru town. my second born is doing his studies at laikipia university. i love my children so much. my thirdborn is mary wanjiku and she is in standard four. my family enjoys going out for a trip together. we also enjoy having ourmeals together. i thank God for my family.

My Business

my business is rearing cattle and selling milk to brokside and also to the neighbours. i started this work in the year 2007. i bought a calf which later became mature and gave birth. that is when i started selling milk. i started by selling 5 litres to brookside everyday and 6 cups to neighbours. this went until i managed to buy a mature cow by the year 2011. my business has been doing good since it cated for part of my children's school fees and other basic needs such as clothing and feeding. i therefore request zidisha to support me as i want to purchase a mature cow.

Loan Proposal

thankyou zidisha for accepting my application. i propose this loan of 100USDollars as i want to purchase a cow. i have a little savings of my income of which i want to add with the 100USDollars and purchase. i kindly request you to support me in making this purchase as this will increase my income through selling milk and this will make ensure i have repayed the loan on time. thank you in advance. Pauline, mitimingi

    Hello Pauline,
    Do you know the situation with James Mwangi? His loan payment is overdue, but only a few dollars short of being fully repaid...In the past he has had a good record, so I fear something is wrong.
    I look forward to your response.
    Kind Regards,

    begin of rainny season has led to high milk production since the the grass and maize stalks they are feeding on are wet and not dry as before. the high milk production has led to high ncome thus high profit

      Thank you for the update Pauline. I also raise dairy cows in the USA and I understand how tough it can be. I am very happy to hear your cow has recovered from her illness.
