Robert Kiringu

Robert is a 25-year-old single, hardworking man who is paying school fees for his two younger sisters, who are now his responsibility. One is doing her ‘O’ level exams this year and the other is enrolled at a college in Nairobi known as K.C.C.T. Apart from his two sisters, his aging diabetic mother also depends on him in taking care of her medical needs.

Robert started saving money when he was still employed as a clerk at the Metropolitan Hospital in the city of Nairobi. This was in the year 2005; through hard work, sacrifice, and determination, Robert managed to save Ksh 200,000 (USD 3075). With this money he bought two computers, a printer and a scanner; with the remaining money, he rented a stall in the heart of the town centre. He then started operating his computer bureau business in the year 2006, where he provides services in processing documents. Robert is always busy due to the location of his business, and he has managed to attract a large clientele.

In recent times, he has had an increase in the number of customers who need to get photocopies of documents. Unfortunately, Robert has been unable to fulfill their needs, since he lacks a photocopying machine. Robert is therefore kindly requesting a loan of USD 775 so that he can purchase a photocopier. This will greatly boost his business since he will be able to provide photocopying services to his clients who are in great need of this service. Robert intends to repay the loan within a period of 12 months.
