About Me

I am a Kenyan lady aged 25 years old. I come from a big family of eight. Unfortunately due to the lack of financial stability I have not been able to complete my studies. I am very ambitious, goal oriented, and hardworking. I heard of zidisha from a close friend and neighbor. She advised that I could make use of the charitable platform to eventually complete my education, and later advance my self through a small food retailing business. I am committed and willing to work hard and emerge a better individual with an outstanding educational and financial background in the long run.
Ever since i joined zidisha, despite the challenges i have faced, i am at least a step closer to where i want to be in life.

My Business

My online business took a toll towards the end of last year where i was a victim of robbery but luckily my life was spared and my health was left in tact as well. Due to loosing my laptop, i was had difficulty in maintaining my finances, since i could not afford to also pay for the relevant checks and licences related to my fish supply business.
I was later able to join a local women's group which assisted me to get back on my feet without interfering with my studies. through them i got a new computer and was able to revive my online business, which now includes content writing, amazon product reviews and transcription.
I earn approximately 3500ksh weekly from both business, since i do them part time. Using the small businesses I will be able to repay the required amount of 500ksh weekly, while comfortably pursuing my studies. I thank zidisha for enabling me to continue with my educational journey to finally become an ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountant).

Loan Proposal

Zidisha enabled me to start my journey once again in pursuing my dream of being an chartered accountant. Thanks to my first loan i registered in KCA UNIVERSITY (Kenya College of Accountancy) just in time for the in take.
Currently i have advanced and wish to enroll in time for the december sitting, hence the reason for my loan application. If my loan is approved, i will use it to sit for
1. Corporate law exams (f4) costing 150$
2. Performance management exams (f5) costing 150$
the rest of the money will be used to clear my outstanding tuition.
I will be able to repay this loan on time because i have managed to acquire a new laptop after my previous one was stolen, and i have all the necessary paper work to ensure that my fish business is not halted by the relevant authorities.
