Hi Zidisha team, my name is Deborah Tembo a double orphan. I grew up with grandmother in a shanty compound in the incomplete. Life in a shanty compound is not easy. My education life has been a very big challenge because my grandmother could not afford to pay for school fees. When I was 8 years old I thought I would complete my education successfully but the cold hand of death caught up with parents in a horrific traffic road accident and both died on the spot. Being the only surviving girl child , my grand mother took me to live with her to date. Through her , I have learnt acquired skills of entrepreneur ship to over come hardship in my life. My ambition was to raise money to pay for my school fees. My dream is to become a medical doctor because I have that education is the greatest equalizer to change and shape my life for the better.
I own a small shop where I bake scorns, cup cakes, flitters , crackers and the doughtnut. Mainly I sale them in the shop, in school places and at the main market. These goods I sale , I mainly target the school going children because demand from pupils is very high, I choose the sector of business because it helps me generate good income I started this business with ZMW 250.00 and I make the profit of ZMW 100 per day and per week I make a profit of ZMW 600.00. If I can be helped with funds I can be making products for sale and generate a lot of money. However, I do not have buckets for carrying the cup cakes and flitters, I also need more baking material such as flour, sugar, baking powder and suqar. As I will baking more flitters, scorns cup cakes and doughtnuts . At least a sum of ZMW 2,500.00 will help buy all the requirements
Besides this business I'm doing, I 'm a student nurse and through this business have been able to pay for my tuition school fees. Hence the funds needed is to pay for my second seminar at school. I will create a good enabling environment for me to learn and do well in school and prepare for a good future in my family and community m
