About Me

I am a fresh graduate(2024) from college and owner of a cereal shop in a market within the college location. I successfully completed my education journey from primary to college through hardships. The huge funds required to settle my secondary and college fees came from well-wishers as my parents are poor and couldn't afford to pay. Being a bright student I often got support from well wishers who financed my education till completion. The tough college life pushed me to creatively react by being innovative and establish measures to aid smooth survival since I had no one apart from my poor parents to provide for pocket money. They could only afford little amount that couldn't take me through the semester. That's when the idea of cereals business came into my mind.

My Business

I earn my income from selling cereals in a busy market in Nairobi. The business has been in place since the year 2023 while at college. I started with just a little tip of pocket money once given to me by a donor to aide my sustenance while on semester session. This idea of selling cereals was to help me earn income that would then provide for my needs at college. For three semesters since the start of this business, I stopped depending on my parents and donors for rent, pocket money and other bills. This is because I got enough to sustain me from the business. I currently in pursuit of funds to help me do renovations and boost a few stocks. I spent quite a lot of money in my examination and graduation process, this drained my savings.

Project Proposal

I plan to use the funds in boosting my stock to and also undertake renovations of my shop in order to serve more customers it was before I incurred losses when I spent my savings on emergency issues.
