Hello, my name is Gertrude Momanyi I was born in 1995. I am a mother of one baby girl. I am the first born in a family of four. My dad's name is Ondara Momanyi and my mom's name is Janet Momanyi.

I belong to Nyamira county in Nyanza part of Kenya. This is where I was born in a village called Nyakoe in Bobasi constituency.

I finished my high school education in the year 2013 and later I joined Nyaore national polytechnic where I pursued diploma in fashion and design in the year 2015.

After graduation, I did many internships in fashion industry and I was being paid little stipend.

After corona in 2023, I started my tailoring business where I opened a small shop in the outskirts of Kisii town. I have managed the shop well and now I have my own machines and I have more customers.

I own a tailoring shop in the outskirts of Kisii town where I make new cloths and do repairs. I started it in the year 2023 and now I am still growing more. I look forward to having a big boutique to supplement my income and incorporate it with my tailoring business.

My profits I use it to buy new materials and fabrics with some I use to pay rent and save some. My husband supports other expenses since he is working.

I need support of (Ksh.15,000) to buy more fabrics to cope with the demand I have for new cloths.

Through the funds I'll be able to acquire fabrics that are so much on demand which in return will help me make profit leading to incorporate generation that helps me cater for my family needs and the community benefits by acquiring affordable tailored clothes.
