About Me

I am 7th in a family of 8, an orphan. Lost my mother first at a tender age, my father left us to fen d for ourselves. He then lost his life last year. I was raised by my elder sister and her husband. They took me to school and made sure i completed my GCE.

I have always worked hard and made sure I leave room for disappointment, I started saving my allowances until i bought my own car which i started hiring out, I now have registered a company which am working towards growing.

I have a 2 year old and I hope she grows up to be independent and self motivated. In my past time i like to meditate

My Business

I run a car hiring service. It's one small car at the moment and it's good on fuel consumption, with the current fuel prices they are on high demand

My costs are mainly fitness, road tax, insurance and general servicing of the car. I earn about K10,500 a month from the one car

I save some of it, the most of its goes to my fees for my studies and also my daughters kindergarten

Project Proposal

The loan will assist and lessen the burden in purchase of fuel for pickups. During the current economic crisis, business has been difficult, profits made are going towards fuel.
