About Me

I am a hardworking and passionate young Kenyan. I am driven by integrity.These are values I've learnt from my mother,after I lost my dad at a tender age(I din't even get the opportunity to see him).My childhood was a bit unstable as my mom was unemployed and we had no one close enough to assist.Through donations and bursaries I was able to study and I am currently in the university.My mom got a job at a charity center,and from her savings I bought this piece of land and turned it into maize plantation.I want to purchase new seeds.here is where I get my fees now.I want to create a bright future for my kids and help my mother.I love reading novels and traveling

My Business

I supply maize to retailers here in Pangani since maize is the stable food here and in demand.Farm inputs and supply cost around 15000 .I use the profit to pay my fees and to help my mom

Project Proposal

Mushrooms are one of the best delicacies that may done our kenyan plates....this nutritious and palatable fungus is a must have in everyones kitchen,,,sadly thats not the case,,,kwa ground for verifiable and non verifiable reasons ranging from cultural inclinations to latest tech.thats why i embarked on an ambitious plan to set up a mushroom farming garden.I need funds for the first supply of pawns(seeds).
