About Me

I was brought up in Nyamira District now known as Nyamira County.At a place called Mokomoni.I went to Emboye primary School .It was very difficult for our father to raise school fees for all of us sixteen(16)children,eleven(11)brothers and five(5)sisters, since we were many and in a polygamous family.My other brothers and sisters didn't finish school due to lack of school fees.We used to go without food for days .I remember our Mum serving us boiled beans with their soup which were not well cooked with only salt and that was all for supper and lunch we used to have a piece of (mahindi choma) roast maize .For me i decided that i must struggle all my way up and i finish my education to Doctorate level.But raising school fees for my high school was through friends and well wishers and university is a problem since i am in parallel but i got a job in the Old mutual life Assurance Ltd.If i manage to get a loan from you i will be able to finish my college at Kenyatta University being my final year in college.Currently i am the Founder member and elected chairman of Eyes Youth Volunteering Association.We do support youths to be self reliant and care for the less fortunate through provision of cloths,food and help in community Development..I stay currently at Githurai 45 ,near Mwiki primary house no 48 ,in Ruiru sub-county and in Kiambu County. I have stayed here for 6years.My permanent Residence is in Nyamira County,Borabu sub-county,Kiabonyoru Ward and in Nyankongo Village(home).

My Business

I got a job in the Old mutual life Assurance Ltd in the month of January 2015.And i will be paying my loan through the salary i get from Old mutual twice in a month That is on 15 and 24 of every month and freelancer online writing.I will ensure that i increase my selling rate to many clients to boost my salary scale and make sure that any freelancer job given is done on time in order to be paid promptly which their salary is paid twice in a month like Old mutual Kenya does.I will make ensure that consistency deposit of repayment loan amount is on due date.Thank you.

Loan Proposal

I will use the Loan amount in paying my tuition for university degree in Education Bachelor of Education (Arts) at Kenyatta University.The Total fees for my semester is US$643.5644/= or K sh.65,000/=,this being my final year of study at Kenyatta University.So far i have raised US$217.8218 /= or K sh.22,000/= so far and the remaining amount is US $ 425.7426/=. So if you give me the loan amount it will help me so much to hit the target college fees since the remaining amount i am raising through funds drive on 15/10/2015.Hence the loan i will be repaying it through my salary at old mutual and as a writer at freelance.

    I wish to apologize for delay of payments. This is due late salary payment and being a student involved me a lot in doing end of semester exams.I promise to improve on repayment.

    Vincent Nchonga, who introduced Jones to Zidisha, has just called promising to send me his alternate current number and to talk to him as well. He is willing to share more info on where he works in Nairobi city. I hope this will assist.

    With Zidisha Organization, I am very optimistic Life of many will be transformed to higher standards.You have enabled me to pay my tuition fees without a security which is a burden to many .It is high time you came up to uplift the poor,the disadvantaged and the needy in the community or the society and the whole world at large.You are a source of change all will wish to have.Many will have food on table through you,afford wearing clothes,put up shelter for those who don't have and get education like me ,God be with you Zidisha Organization .And there goes biblical verse that says I was necked and you clothed me ,hungry and you gave me food to eat , thirsty and you gave me to drink and in hospital and you came for me.You are the angels of Christ on earth.Keep the spirit God will reward you.I am proud to associate with you and I hereby believe that you will go far and you will change the lives of many .
