About Me

hi my name is Mwaanga, am married and I come from a family of 4 girls. Life was very interesting growing up. I did my primary education and later completed my secondary education. One thing that i can recount as a hardship was going to college but by God's grace I managed to complete a Diploma in Social Work. Apart from being an entrepreneur, my interest is to help the needy in society and also work with children.I have 4 kids, the first born girl wants to become a medical doctor, my second born son wants to become a lawyer and the other two are still young. In my free time i enjoy singing and spending time with my family.

My Business

I am currently employed and I have been working for more than five years and I normally spend my salary on food and any support to my family. At the same time I run small businesses of selling rice at home and also supplying of books and smoking fish. I chose this kind of business because I noticed that people need food everyday.My source of income is my current job and any help rendered to me will be highly appreciated.The demand for food is high and with bigger capital my business will grow from one level to another.

Loan Proposal

I am currently employed as an Administrative Officer where I basically handle all administrative functions for a primary school called Rose of Sharon located in Kitwe and i am also a part-time student. I have not yet graduated from university where I have been pursuing a Diploma in Social Work. With this loan, I want to purchase a digital camera which I want to be using in my research work. My program of study involves a lot of field work, visits to various communities where I interact with residents in communities, including youths, children and the aged. A digital camera in local shops in my town costs between $350 and $450 so with the loan I am applying for will be sufficient. This camera will benefit me and i will also be able to keep memories of my work and share with others. I really want to complete so that I can enroll for a degree program in the same field. My source of income is my current job and any help rendered to me will be highly appreciated so that I carry out my research work.

    Loan was originally scheduled to take eight months. Four months of payments were missed but the loan was paid off after about eleven months. I wish you continued success.
