My names are Josephine moranga. I am married with three kids, after my secondary school I got married then shortly after that I was blessed with my first born. So I became a stay home mum since my husband was working then things were going well.
After seven years in marriage and blessed with 3 kids things took a turn when my husband was involved in an accident, this really got to me since I hard nothing formal I would do, neither did have any experience to work.
That's when I thought of this idea of doing a passion fruit farm, it was a rough start at the beginning but due to my persistence and hard work they were better and I love the experience so far and it has helped me a lot.
I have a passion fruit farm, I have done this for over 4 years so far and it has been great, it has helped me see my children through school and helped in my husband's medical bills,
I have three different farms for passion fruits which allows me distribute the fruits all year long. I sell my passion fruits in crates and a crate goes for kes 450, in a month I sell approximately 100 crates, this gives me kes 45000 a month.
I use kes 15000 to okay for my kids tuition fee, kes 15000 to take care of my household expenses, I use kes 10000 to purchase my husband medicines and I save kes 5000 for emergencies
Hello, I would like to request a loan of $ 200 to add to my savings to help me buy posts for support of the passion fruits, most of the passion fruit support post have worn out and this has led to loss since most fruits rot before picking.
I need to buy 200 post which will cost me $ 250, I can raise $50 from my saving and I request $200
I will be grateful if you fund me and I will make my installments on time.
Thanks
