My name is Pamela Ochieng. I come from Kisumu county in Kenya. Iam the first born in a family of 7, all alive with our last born still attending school.I work on temporary contracts as a counselor and majorly run a handworks shop in Ahero 17 km from Kisumu. Am a single of mother of three who are all attending school, single by circumstance not choice. Am a born again Christian and I serve in church as a construction treasurer and service lead, besides I also serve in praise and worship team, doing what I love most, I.e singing, playing guitar and piano.
I make money out of handworks which involves but not limited to shaggy mats, soft carpets. duvets, pillows, beadworks and traditional baskets. I also offer consultancy as a counselor especially in HIV/AIDS and study coordination.
I will add to my savings made during the increased stock turnover, to continue with money transfer urgency which h had started but went down when I lost my job abruptly and also covid. I will be able to have enough float to run the money transfer urgency which will give me income at the end of every month. Since I make purchases once in a week instead of keeping the money in the house I can use it to earn through the urgency.
