About Me

My childhood life was marked by extreme struggle ,I went through education system ,through government loan , before securing a job a contract job as teacher. My ambition was to nurture a career of my own came into my mind when the teaching contract ended in the private school i served. I decided to nurture my art talent I had Identified years back. So I went to art training college after which i started testing my art appraisal value . I spec aliased in oil painting ,though i also tried some sculpturing. I established myself through missionaries and tourist visiting Kenya .. I acquired experience to the level I am today. I have been able to establish a network of customers. I recently established a gift shop to be selling my product and few more collections from art community with whom we have shared over the years. I hope the loan will help me build more networks and add more stock in my gift shop. In addition to my desire to succeed in my business i have connected my self to a local orphanage where i teach orphans how to identify their talent for survivor.Through that, i have acquired popularity making my art sell-able.My face book art page helps in making customers know what i do.I hope to create my own website in future.
I was introduced recently to zindisha and through the loan am applying, I hope to boast my business activities to improve my dependent at family and community level. I have a dream of spreading the art skill to others who deserve ,to make life bearable.
I believe the zindisha system is a revolutionary one and would want to be testimony to others who may want to join zindisha and be part agent of development in their society.

My Business

Am currently involved in both farming and painting that i sell to some selected stalls in the downtown or through several available openings through internet.Because of changing taste of consumers ,i have lately engaged more in farming activities specializing in horticultural crops that i later seek supply tenders from many wholesale dealers in the downtown.The chemical free farming that am particularly interested in have highly gained demand and some herbs like basil ,parsley ,coriander are proving important according to ministry of health campaign for improved health.
I chose this business because i have what it takes and it can help m y family in both income generation and direct use.
The seeds are available in the local and international outlets for the exotic seeds and comparing the input and output there is wide gain.We supply monthly ,and we make sure we plant all the time.We need tank to be busy during the dry season coming.
There are times the business is low and the weather unfavorable but the two engagement compliment one another.Am able to go out and promote my work when in my shop the sale is low.
The profit i have bee generating this time goes towards the cost of education of our children ,and erecting new means of improved production.

Loan Proposal

With the 200$ ,i plan to buy one truck of compost manure for my organically grown spinach already planted and this will cost 100$ US.I want to buy also recommended pesticide worth 50$.The remaining 50$ will be used to fund the intensive labor of weeding and harvesting as well as nurturing others coming up in my continuous production.
The loan will be a big boost because my horticultural farming forms the background means of livelihood for me and my family.I also engage the services of laborers therefore creating employment as well as plugging the gap of the growing need of organically grown vegetables.
I make 60 $ to 80$ bi -monthly income which after deduction leaves me with at least 100$ ,depending on the outcome.
