About Me

I was born on 27/9/1983. I went to Minors primary school then I joined Nkubu High school. After my school I Kenya Methodist University main campus situated in Meru county where I did my clinical medicine, surgery and community health. My main challenge was the school fees which I overcame through harambee and being employed as a part-time untrained teacher and as doing Hawking job to make ends meet. I managed to set up my clinic in Chuka Town by raising funds from friends, bank loans, graduation gifts from relatives and savings.

My Business

I operate a medical clinic at Chuka town. I offer curative, preventive, family planning and laboratory services. I get about Ksh 120,000 per month deduct expenses am left with about Ksh 28000 as a profit. That business and my monthly salary from my regular job are my main source of income. I have employed three people that is a community worker, pharmacist and a security guard.

Loan Proposal

With the loan I will get I will be able to buy my business stock that is drugs like painkillers for about$3, antihypertensives for about $2 and cough syrps for about $1. I will also be able to recruit and high someone to help me whom I will pay about $ 85. The above will enable me to work more efficiently and also have time to look for another place to open a new clinic at a different place. I expect the profit to increase by about 2.5% by end of this month.

    I purchased drugs and CCTV camera for my place. The purchase made my business safe and also I was able to treat my clients by through the drugs I bought. My clients were satisfied and my earnings increased by 5% that business month. The extra amount that is the profit I bought more stock and I was able to organise medical camp to give back to the community. Family no children but married to one beautiful wife. It has been long since I went for a holiday but if I will go I plan to visit Meru national park for a game drive and the various traditional delicacies on their menu.

    With the loan I was able to buy C.C.T.V. Cameras and also with the little I had saved I was also able to employ a night security guard for my business premises. With the above the security at my business is now guaranteed so no more break in like the one I had on mid of June where I lost part of my equipments and drugs to the buglers. With the security improved, that is once the installation is completed the profit will increase by about 1% from the current profit margin I get on my monthly returns from my business. The increase I have reinvestment back to my business to replace what was stolen. Still no kids I am still searching for the one. Right now the most interesting thing in my neighborhood is politics.

    I intend to use the loan to buy and install C.C.T.V. cameras at my place of business and higher a security guard. By doing this, I will be able to protect my investment from any future burglary hence ensuring that my business is always safe safe and I will only be using my profit for expanding my business instead of replacing lost or stolen property. I thank you all from my heart.

    I purchased drugs like painkillers and I also bought some extra syrps. With the purchase I was able to meet most of my clients needs hence creating a good reputation for my business leading to more clients resulting to more steady income. My profit increased by 5.6% compared with the last months profit. With this I was able to buy a computer in order to make work more easier for myself and have proper record for my clients. I have not yet met the one so no children yet. My neighborhood now is buzzing with talk about politics and politicians since in my country we have a general election coming up on August 8.

    I purchased drugs like painkillers, antihypertensives and I also managed to hire an assistant in my place to be my helper. The loan I was given has enabled me to be able to meet most of my clients needs so it has improved my services. My monthly returns have improved or increased by 0.98% this month. Iam saving the increase in order to get enough capital to open another clinic at a different place. My family still no children yet.

    I purchased drugs like painkillers and antibiotics which enabled me to be able to run my business venture smoothly. The purchase has made a very big difference since I was able to meet most of my clients needs and attract new clients bringing more profit. My earnings have increased by about 1% by the end of this month. With the increase I intend to expand my business and hire an assistant in my business. I newly married so I don't have any children yet. In my neighborhood the most interesting place is Mount Kenya forest where one can go for a holiday to see the big 5. It has also a place known as elephant maternity where all elephants from the East Africa come to give birth. It is at a place where a local river known as river nithi is found.
