Tell us about yourself
I am 38 years old, a mother of 4 children, a wife and a business lady. I enjoy reading spiritual books during my free time.
What are you most proud of?
I am proud of my group ,Ngomongo Tailoring. I joined Ngomongo in 2011, from then on, I have learnt a lot from members through exchange of ideas. Their encouragement and support have enabled me to become a better person.
What is the most important lesson you’ve learned with The Pangea Network?
The most important lesson I have learnt from Pangea, is how to run a business. During the training held in 2015, I was challenged in ways that opened my mind. In January this year, I opened a new business – a kiosk selling different foodstuff and toiletries. My sales have picked up and this month, I opened a groceries business on the side. I am optimistic it will also pick up. All this was made possible by the training and loan I received from Pangea network. Through the increased in Income, I will be able to provide a better life for myself and my children.
