Ruth creates sweaters and skirt suits in her business, "Ndinda Knitting". She is 38 years old and married with three children, ranging in age between 4 and 14. She started this business one year after being retrenched from Kenya Railways. She employs four people. She is requesting a loan for 70,000 Kenyan shillings (KES) to purchase a hand flat knitting machine and knitting yarn.


This is Ruth’s second loan and she says her first loan of 30,000 KES helped her business a lot. Her hope for the future is to have a big business that creates employment for others and to be able to leave an inheritance for her children.
