I am a mother of five children, and I grew up in a remote area. I attended school but was unable to complete my education. Afterward, I got married and ventured into various businesses and farming. Currently, I am involved in buying and selling maize, which helps me support my children's education. They all have big dreams—some aspire to become a pilot, a teacher, and an engineer. I truly enjoy spending time with children and cooking for them.

I sell maize in my small shop, and it’s in high demand because food is a basic necessity. This type of business is easy to start and doesn't require a lot of skills to manage. I ensure that I renew my shop license every year. The profit I make is used to feed my family, pay school fees for my children, and cover other household expenses.

Once I receive the funds, I will increase my stock investments, which will lead to consistent profit growth. This will allow me to hire members of the community and support vulnerable individuals. Additionally, it will significantly improve my living standards and provide a better future for my children.
