About Me

My name is Hellen Mumba a mother of 3 children.I come from a humble background and my parents Mr and Mrs David Kapambwe. I completed my tertiary education and trained as teacher at Nkwame Nkrume University in Kabwe. I teach primary education and am passionate about my career and in future i want to upgrade teaching career to level of Bachelors degree.Because of the passion of my career, i have register a necessary school in our community were i to start running my small school before it grow big.Our country is unique in the world with christian values and has tourist attraction all over the country and also rich minerals.My dream is to educate my children and become better citizen in the country.

My Business

I have opened a school in our community and i provide the learners with knowledge.Education is important in the community because most children do not go school and it is therefore their opportunity to be enrolled once the school acquires class room desks, school board and other education materials help the school operating.The passion i have is to impact the learners with life skills of education to help them become better citizen of the great nation of Zambia.The profits that shall come from school fees will used to improve the school to expand and also pay teachers at the school.However the school will rely most on parental support and move the school forward.

Loan Proposal

I need the loan to help me purchase the class room desks for the learners to start learning a conducive environment, this will make the learners get their education at their door step as the school located is within the community and funds from school fees will be used to upgrade the school and build more class room blocks and accommodate more learners so that the entire community can be empowered by education so that many lives of children can add value as they finish their education.

Income Source

At the school i have plenty of and production unity is very encouraged, the school have vegetable gardens and we grow vegetable such as cabbages, maize, groundnut and sweet potatoes for sale.The production unity in the growing of vegetables for sale, helps the school generate extra income to help develop the school, save money and also pay the care takers at the school.Hence some of the can be used to repay the loan as well.

    Currently the school is closed due to Covid 19, for the past three week we have not been working as usual hence we just opened after mass spraying to ensure that the school has a clean environment for the learners. Nevertheless I will repay the loan with adjusted amount at the moment. Thank you

    With this loan am still planning to buy more materials for making school Uniforms and Jerseys so that the school can be making Uniforms to sell to pupils so the school can be raising extra income apart from school fees. This will help the school to generate more revenue as the school is planning to expand in its operation.
    Thank you so much my lenders for supporting me and God bless you.

    Dear lenders am very grateful the loan was indeed a very good success for the school, the school bought the equipment but still still needs to buy another equipment because demand is getting high for school uniform and that school realized that it is a good initiative to make more school uniforms and generate more income.
    Dear lender thank you for the loan and may God bless you more for it is not easy to receive financial support locally during this difficulty time.
