My name is Elizabeth Daka, I am 23 years old. I work as a housekeeper at a hotel in lusaka and I am raising my two year old Tricia, all by myself. After completing school all the responsibility fell on me: rent, food, school, clothes and sometimes by the end of month I barely have any money left, but I always do my best so that my daughter never notices. As a single parent I refuse to wait on a while collar job only, therefore I have a business that I am managing.

I have a small retail shop that I am managing with the help of my young sister. When I am at work she is the one who look after my shop, then I normally take over when I knock off from work. I decided to run this business because even when money is hard, people still need cooking oil, meal, sugar, soap, drinks and bread. The other thing I love about this business is that it's profitable and the profit helps me in balancing my business and other needful items.

I all greet you in the name of our lord Jesus christ. I am reaching out because the rainy season is starting soon and my roof is really in bad shape. I urgently need to buy materials to fix it before the heavy rains cause some serious damage inside the house. I would and will truly appreciate the help that you will give me or receive on this matter. Thank you
