About Me

I am a single mother with two children one boy and one Girl, who I love them very much. I separated from the father of my kids on 2017 due to many reasons I couldn't keep on with that life where my kids are stressed all the time, I got a job in a salon in nyali mombasa, I started working there since 2018 till now am still working in that salon, I struggled paying my sons school fees until he Finnished his high school, now I wanted him to do a small course, now my daughter is in her junior secondary

This products will all be available in economic pack of less than 0.5kg which most Kenyan can afforded due to high economic hard-times.

    I have talked to Dorcas, and she has explained that she has been experiencing financial problems, and will resume paying her loan as from Mid next month after clearing the arrears. I have also requested her to reschedule and be able to pay manageable amount as she is planning to normalize paying her loan. Thanks
