My name is Ireen Bwalya from Zambia to be specific in Chimwemwe part of copper belt, i was born in Chambishi township on 10th June, 1981 therefore i am 44 years old, i am a married woman of 4 lovely offsprings.

For my childhood education i did at 2 different Schools for grade 1 to grade 7 i was at Chambishi primary School after passing my exams for grade 7 with 702 marks as the best of 350 School passing marks, i went to Mpongwe Boarding School there i wrote grade 9 exams i got 664 and grade 12 exams i got 7 points as the best and finally i went Copper belt university of Zambia to do my course in teaching Chemistry for 4 years and i got my degree.

I am kind of a person who believe in myself and know that through perseverance and hard working i can do anything and here i am, i have achieved an important goal of getting educated and become a School owner and having teachers as my employees.

When i did my course at the copper belt university of Zambia i stayed for 2 year without having a Job, but luckily enough at our Church the leaders started the plan in which they can be raising the money, so they came up with an ideal of building a Christian School and i applied as a chemistry teacher and i was accepted to start teaching grade 11 and 12 extra lessons in the evening for the School at that time didn't have secondary classes and i worked for 4 years, but in mind i didn't want to work for someone else for a long time therefore i was keeping the money that i was getting as wage and since we had a big land i decided to stop teaching at our Church and build my own private School called Ireen academy under Aim the future depends on me.

My children one of them who is a first born is completing grade 12 this year so he want to do craft electrical engineering of which i am in fully support and the second born who is in grade 9 she wants to be a nurse and the ather 2 they say that they want to become teachers and i will make sure that they fulfil their dreams.

I love watching Nigerian movies and Indian as well as studying Chemistry for learning doesn't end.

I provide education services and my availability is to make sure that everyday i put some knowledge in pupils so that in future they because teacher, Scientists and wherever they want to become.

The loan i want is for building more class rooms because i have a lot of enrolment so we are running out of classses, so we have a budget of 200000 ZMW for work to be done

I chose to become a teacher and to make a School because i know that education is a key to success and i also know that education is one of the businesses which make good profit, and its on demand.

Like in my case at my School i have 6 teachers and each class accommodates 30 pupils and each pupil pay 750 ZMW every month so each month i make 135,000 and i pay the 6 teachers 7000 ZMW each and the rest i use it for School improvement and taking care of my family.

The funds are really needed for our project tobto be done my School has few class rooms and i have many children so i need this fund so that i can build some more class room which will accommodate 90 pupils.
