About Me

I am a married woman aged 37 with four children. I was born in a family of seven, and I am third. I didn't finish school due to financial difficulties and this has led me face hardship in my life and marriage. It is really a tough going more especially when it comes to taking my children to school. Some times my children spend the whole term without going to school. My husband is not working, this also is a contributing factor to the financial difficulties.

My Business

I want to start poultry at a small scale, and this will greatly help relief the great burden on my family in terms of my school going children's fees, and it will help boost my charcoal business.

The first loan has greatly changed the financial status of my family, in the sense that I am able to send my children to school and buy them school uniforms, as well as pay school fees.

I am looking forward to a successful business in my near future. Thanks for the help my lenders rendered to me, it came at the right time.

Loan Proposal

The loan I have applied I will buy and use it as follows:

1. Bags of charcoal = $40
2. Transport = $10

The profit from this business will help me greatly to take my children to school and sustain my family.
