My full name is kilach penaline chelangat.
I am the first born in a family of six.
My childhood education was tough due to some financial constraints.
Me and my siblings were depending on our parents for school fees, food, clothes and other basic needs and this caused alot of pressure on the little resources that they owned.
Immediately after high school I was forced by circumstances to find ways of helping my family.
Before joining university I worked and I was earning few coins of which some I was saving and at the same time helping my siblings to pay school fees as my parents found food for the family.
Our community's livelihood is dependent on agriculture.
I would like my future children to be educated and be able to change their future.
I like music and other works of art.
From my little saving I managed to open a mini bookshop near my home which is close to several primary schools and high schools.
The stationery are on high demand. This is because biston is isolated from other towns.
I chose this kind of business because I could manage it easily and I could place somebody to help me even if am away. These goods are not perishable and when it happens that you close for some time you will still come and find your goods still okay.
I just started the business with only $200 and most of the time I use the profit from this business to pay for my school fees as well as that of my siblings.
Thi loan will help me to pay school fees for my degree in nursing. I have found it difficult in my studies because of lack of adequate funds.
If I get this loan will to a great extent help me pay my fees thus accomplishing my educational goals.
Im required to pay $1300 per academic year and this has been a great problem in accomplishing the payment in time and this has negatively impacted my grades.
This loan will help me to have a good and conducive environment for learning since it will enable me clear fees.
The society will also be grateful for that because they have fixed there eyes on me and they are looking forward to see that I perform and help them in future.
