I am Thomas Opiyo Okumu born in a remote village of kayombi in Siaya County. I am the firstborn among nine living children. We were ten but one passed away when we were young. I went to Umina Primary School for my Primary education but did not manage to join High school for lack of funds, eventhough I was to be admitted at Bar Kanyango High School. After marriage; I joined adult education for my studies and then graduated with an interest to help the needy access education. I started training adults who did not get the right education at a fee which is minimal than that which other private schools are offering.
I have two boys aged eight years and five years respectively. The five year boy would like to be a banker/accountant and the eight year boy would like to be a doctor.
After some years; I developed an interest in Education sector given that I was not able to get educated and so I thought of students who are going through the same experience. I provide education by bringing qualified teachers. I chose this kind of business because first of all; it is supporting my family and secondly, I am able to give back to the community at a small fee.
Right now, I need a loan to building rental houses that will bring income every month.
I would like to requested a loan that can enable me to begin structuring a building with rental rooms for monthly income.
The project is expensive but Zidisha can provide me with a boost to enable me continue where I am stuck.
