About The Project

$510 needed to purchase inventory for her business
$265 contributed by Jane towards her project


Jane and her husband, Emmanuel,  earn income from running a boda boda (moto-bike taxi) transport service, buying and selling goats and sheep and maize flour. Investments will help them buy goods in bulk for resale purposes and to help realize her goal of opening a market. The main source of their income, however, is from selling vegetables they grow on their farm (Irish potatoes, onions wheat, beans). Jane wants to grow Irish potatoes and onions on a larger scale. Investments will also help buy more seed and hire local labor. Their market will also provide the space to sell their farm produce.



Paying it Forward

As the crop production increases so will the need for Jane to hire labor from the local community.

Backstory

This past year the family has earned income from running a transport service, buying and selling goats and sheep and maize flour. The main source of their income is from selling vegetables from their farm. The wholesale market will be an extension of their already varied enterprises. They have three children in school and two that are not school aged. With additional income Jane would like to improve the diet for her family and be able to provide regular medical checkups for the family. Home improvement and additional furniture are other goals. They face the common challenges of this area, there is no hospital, electricity and poor roads.
