I was born in makueni county in the eastern province of Kenya. Born 3rd of 6 children. I went to mukamene primary school which is about 10 km away. I completed my primary education and passed my exams and I joined the nearby secondary school mukamene. Unfortunately I didn't finished my high school due to lack of school fees. I moved to Nairobi for employment and I worked as a helper in a Epz factory which produces clothes for export. I worked for 3 years saving atleast 60% of my income. I started a small business of selling furniture material like velvet, cushions and sponges to the carpenters. I got good people who promoted my investment products that enabled it to grow. They are social, motivating and encouraging. I like there contributions to my business. I would like to see my children be God fearing, concentrate in there education to become useful people to the society. I like swimming, reading and meeting new people with new ideas.
I sell furniture goods like cushions, sponges, velvet, nails and threads to carpenters and esteemed customers my business is located in a strategic place where many carpenters are situated. I chose the business because of it's demands with its good return. I spent $150 in a week balancing my business of which profits are encouraging that has enabled me to survive. I use my profit in growing my business, paying my daily expenses, and helping my parents to pay school fees to my younger brothers and sisters.
I will use my loan to grow my business as it has been improving through your support. I will use $30 to buy cushions
$50 to buy velvet
$50 to buy sponge
$30 to buy paint and $30to buy nails ans tuds.This will boost my business and make it to expand and even increase my profit by 40%and enable me to change my life and help my younger brothers and sisters to pay schools fees for them and take care of my family basic needs. Thanks.
