About Me
my name is Eric Kiogora and hail from Meru county of Kenya.l am 23 years old and cleared secondary education in the year 2012. l was raised up by my grandmother who l love very much.after completing my secondary education l was not able to join college due to lack of school fees but lam very optimistic that in the near future l will enroll into a teachers training college and purse teaching so as to earn a living and give back to the community. l am a farmer as l do help my grandmother with the shamba work and so far l have been able to keep two cows that l am planning to sell towards the end of next year and raise some college fee. l am the first born and do love reading as well as traveling.
My Business
l started livestock keeping in the year 2011 by buying two calves that l have from the little savings l had saved after securing a job as petrol station attendant here in meru. my grandmother shared the idea with me and because she is of age and not able to do manual jobs l make sure the animal feeds are ready every morning and do leave my grandmother to feed them. since we don,t have a big shamba l do buy nappier grass. lf my loan application is successful l will use the money to buy another dairy calf so at least l can be selling milk in the near future. besides rearing cows l am also a qualified driver and at times do get temporary jobs as a driver and do use the money to support my grandmother as well as save for the future.
Loan Proposal
As a borrower l have learnt to never diverted the money from the very purpose you had planned it for as this enables you to be focused.l will use kshs 30000 to pay school fees while the balance of kshs 15000 l will buy two heifers that l plan to sell them later for some profit.
