Dorothy Kaitisha is my Christian Zambian name . I come from North Western Province of Zambia where my parents came from and my ancestors. I live in Lusaka District located in Chaisa Compound. I went to Matero Girls Secondary School where I completed my grade 12 education.

From there I went to NIPA, National Institute of Public Administration and studied a Diploma in Business management. After graduating successfully, I was fortunate enough and got employed for 3 three years on contract basis and renewable with National Breweries as Sales Representative. Besides working my plan while at school was to raise some capital and start up a business. While working as Sales Representative I was saving some money and that's how I ended up starting a business for an additional income of which am managing in our community to be supporting me and family members who are vulnerable with no jobs or business.

Looking at the challenges of I went through, I would like my children to be well educated and specialize in the of medicine and engineering .

During my free time, I love watching women's football and go partying and going to church to worship God every Sunday.

I have a small shop where in our community and I sell assorted groceries, clothing, meat products and chickens. From that is were my source of income is and also my monthly salary. The goods I sale they are for daily consumption in our community and are always in demand . I choose this business because I generate good income, the profit I make is very huge and this is the main reasons why I need business capital to grow the business so that I should grow and the business in our community as demand is increasing at the moment.

Therefore, the profits I make from the business, I use it for reinvestment, home improvement, paying shop rentals and paying school fees.

However, I want to put in a lot of effort and determination to grow the business so that I can now start supporting the welfare of orphaned children in our community.

I propose to buy more grocery goods in my shop due to high demand especially groceries goods that are on high demand such as; cooking oil, sugar, eggs, potatoes, juice, soft drinks, fresh milk, sour milk, butter cup, dressed chicken, sausages, fresh fish, rice, macaroni and spaghettis and many more daily consumables by the customers in our community. Therefore I will generate more more income after developing the shop, grow and expand. Basically this is the main purpose of the loan, I will glad to be supported and I will greatly value your support my backers.
