I am businessman, I own a cyber cafe and also supply internet within my region. I have also actively ventured into agriculture and poultry farming. I am committed to empowering my fellow youths towards economic independence and self actualization through self-employment ventures by sharing viable business ventures and ideas and working towards its implementation. I subcontract various freelancing services including online article writing but after relocating to my rural town in Bungoma I have ventured more on farming and poultry.

I have been able to venture full-time on agriculture after testing the fruits of my sweat in this field. I'm currently doing farming on my small piece of land where I plant vegetables for domestic and retailing. I have also ventured into poultry farming rearing both local and improved breeds of chicken known as kuroilers. I currently have 300 birds and am planning to venture into serious large scale poultry farming with a projection of over 1000 birds in a span of one year. I have grown in terms of skills and hands on prowess when it comes to poultry farming and I am more confident than ever that this is what I purpose to do as a career, hobby and interest. I, however, need proper housing structures and equipment for feeding and waltering. I also need an incubator because I want to start selling chicks to other farmers in my area.

Hi lenders,

I want to first and foremost thank you for being always instrumental in funding my projects and believing in me.

I wish to request for funding to buy young hybrid chicks for rearing. I have ventured into farming and I have been able to construct a structure for my birds. I hereby request for your assistance in funding this project that will see me buy 50 improved indigenous breed of chicks that grow very fast and yet resistant to most poultry diseases; I will also be able to purchase vaccines and feeds for the chicks together with what I already have. I believe with my previous experience on rearing chicken, I am better placed to undertake this venture on a commercial platform and take poultry farming to the next level is as far as this project is concerned.

I am looking forward to your continued support and promise to do my very best in this particular project until it yields the anticipated results and I pray that you walk with me through this journey as you have done before. Thank you all in advance Zidisha family.

Kind regards,

Patrick Obiero
