About Me

I have gone through a lot in my life. My mother passed away when I was two years old. My father passed away before I completed secondary education. I went a lot especially due to non supporting relatives. I have however been able to take a diploma in early childhood. In today's life, orphaned children do not get enough support. Being one of them, I had to miss classes and look for some menial jobs to get food. After completing school. I did not get any financial and moral support. I ended up doing a simple course whereas I had the potential for a greater course from my grades. After completing my education, I have started motivational speaking to help encourage the hopeless in life. I look forward to helping more people through this venture.

My Business

I am an ECDE teacher. I use the income to support my family though the income is never enough. I also use the land I have to do agriculture. Currently, I am growing vegetables and doing poultry farming whereby I am rearing indigenous breeds. I sell the eggs and some of the chickens to earn money. I have also been making a few coins from the sale of surplus vegetables. I however cannot manage to till a bigger piece because of the method of fetching water. I would wish to install a pump and piping to work better.

Loan Proposal

Due to your former loan, I was able to start rearing new breeds of chicken. The businesses has been doing well so far. However, due to the scarcity of water in our area, the river I used to rely on for water supply has dried of. I therefore wish to request for a connection of piped water. I'm sure this will be of great help in sustaining my business. The whole intallation process will cost about $70. My neighbours will also benefit from it since they will get water from my home. I'll be glad if you consider my request in getting this loan. Thanks in advance.

    My purpose for this loan is to buy a better breed of chicken called croilers. I shall buy one day old chicks. I'm sure these chicks will be beneficial to my poultry farm since I shall get better output. Thank you very much for lending me this money.

    The loan that I received last time was very helpful to me. I'm very grateful for the hand that you offered me. The brooder that I purposed to buy was very expensive and I therefore did not manage to buy the item I had said in my request. I however used the loan to better my chicken house. I bought some chicken wire and fixed it on the house to better the aeration of the house. Thank you again.

    Hi Jeremiah, I would be very happy if you could post a photo of the brooder after buying. And of your chicken in their poultry house of course. :-) Good luck with your business!

    I just completed repaying my sh.630 loan.paying it was not with much struggle since my chicken business had already started giving me some little cash from sale of a few eggs. I'm so glad that it enabled me to start rearing my own chickens. Thank you for making me my own boss. I wish to continue working with you.

    Hi dear lender, I received the loan of sh.630 though it took some time before being disbursed. It is however never too late. Thank you again. I have since used the money to buy feeds for my chicks. They are developing very well. I just don't know what I would do without that help. Thank you again

    I am greatful for the first loan that you offered me. It really supported me to set up my chicken structure. I however have a problem in accessing my second loan. I went through all the processes and I was told that it would be sent into my M-PESA account within a week. This has not happened yet. Kindly help me to access this loan. Thank you as I wait to hear from you
