About Me

Hello everyone, my name is Stanton Kapumba Chanda, born and bred in Kabwe town, Central province of Zambia. I am a first born in a family of 8, i grew up with mom and my siblings in rural area where the family relocated after a prolonged marital separation, ever since i was 16.
I completed my senior secondary education (Grade 12) in 2015. I couldn't further my education due to lack of tertiary education sponsorship. Whilst in school, i could run a photography business which helped financially. In 2017 i switched to Mobile Accessories Business, in 2019 i shifted from Kabwe to a nearby District within the province (Chibombo district) to run my business there, which is still my current location.
I started this business so that i could earn a living through providing solutions to the community needs. This is because the jobs are difficult to find in my country and the unemployment level is so high.

My Business

My small business is a registered Mobile Phone Accessories, phone flashing a repairing business. Its a a very good and fast growing business as a lot of people needs a supply of phone accessories nearby, so we provide mobile phones solutions to the people of Chibombo township with their needs (Selling them phones accessories, repairing their faulty phones and unlocking their locked phones) nearby, instead of them spending money on transport to a nearby towns to access those services.
My aim is to grow the business so that i can provide my community with their items/accessories.
This business is helping to earn my living, help me support my siblings with school and help my mother.

Project Proposal

Like usual, my aim is to grow my business. I run a small phone accessories business in a very small town, Chibombo.
When I get this help, I want to expand my business by stocking the shop with phone batteries, earphones and USB cables.
This will keep my business alive and hopefully earn me a living like always.
Thanking you all in advance.

    Financial setback. I had my grandmother in the nearby town on Monday this week, I travelled to attend the funeral procession. Since Monday morning my business has been closed and I have spent my savings to help with funeral needs.

    Good afternoon all my backers, am glad this loan has successfully been disbursed and very glad you made it possible.
    With this loan, I will buy earphones, batteries and USB cables for my shop.

    This will help my business to sty alive and remain afloat. This means that I'll earn a living out of it by supporting my family through rentals and food stuffs.

    Lastly I'd like to thank you all for making this possible. I'm very grateful for your consideration and kind gesture. Let's grow together

    I run a small Phone Accessories business, as a startup, my shop is lacking some items. From this loan disbursement, I travle to the capital city of Zambia to buy earphones and phone batteries to stock my shop.
    This will help my keep my business alive and grow it at at same time. If I manage to stock my shop with goods I will have some money to pay rentals for the shop and the house am staying in.
    Lastly i would love to pass my sincire gratitde to my backers, Kristiina, John Macharia and Stefan Schmalz for funding me. I am really thankful.
