My name is Eunice Zulu. I live in Kapiri Mposhi town in riverside township. Am a single mother of 6 children. I completed my secondary school at Mukobeko Secondary School. After completion of my secondary school I was awarded a scholarship to study a Diploma in secretarial and agri-business.

At the moment am involved in farming business and it is the source of income. After hearing of Zidisha loan online I got interested and I requested to be invited so I could access the online.

Farming business mainly is my major business and livelihood because it is the main source of income. I grow or farm different farming crops which I sale. Among the crops I sale are, vegetables, sweet potatoes, cassava, tomatoes, onions, carrots, beans and mainly the maize crop. currently am harvesting the maize crop which is very much ready for sale to millers but I have challenging at the farm because I do not have the harvesting machine and the hammer mill which I need very for making mealie meal.

Following the great harvest of maize, At least ZMW 25,000.00 to buy the hammer mill for processing mealie meal this due to lack of having a hammer in our community. Most people have been using the local method of pounding mealie meal as such when I buy the hammer meal it will be a great source of revenue as most people in the community need the hammer mill to curb the challenges of mealie meal. However, my family will be very as income will increase to support the children to pay their school fees and buy food for the family.
