I am from Githurai 45, a youth with a burning desire to contribute to the growing economy of my country (Kenya). In addition, I hold a university degree in business administration. My town is full of great opportunities and many people willing to offer advice to the young. Many of the forums I attend urge me to start my own business.
I love researching, and traveling, trying to find knowledge to make my business better. This has helped me gather a lot of information pertaining to my business. Unfortunately, the income from the business is not much. I use it to pay rent and my upkeep limiting me in expanding business. That is the main reason I plea for financial assistance.
My source of income is a cybercafé business where I currently control a clientele base of about 100 persons per day, which generate about $215 per week
My total monthly income is in the range of $2175 P/M and my total operating cost range between $500-575 per month. I wish to expand my business and add more computers so that I can admit more children into the world of computer civilization. Zidisha funding will help me go for additional computers and reduce the pressure of cost. For this reason, I will charge very affordable fee for the children joining the computer classes. Moreover, I always consider those who cannot afford the computer fees. Through your contribution you will have directly impacted in a child’s life. I cannot thank you enough :)
