Simon's story

Simon is a committed entrepreneur from Kenya and a single father devoted to supporting his child and extended family.  He balances family responsibilities with determination, using his business to provide stability, education, and daily needs.  His resilience and discipline have helped him grow steadily despite economic uncertainty and limited resources.

Simon runs a retail accessories business selling bangles, earrings, hair items, cables, and related products sourced from local wholesalers.  He employs two women, creating income opportunities within the community.  Market fluctuations and slow economic recovery remain challenges, but customer demand is gradually improving.

The requested support will restock, strengthen supply, and boost sales.  Profits will support his child’s education and fund plans to open a wholesale outlet.  Simon has previously managed a loan responsibly.  He thanks lenders worldwide for their continued trust and partnership that enables growth, dignity, employment, and long-term community development for families.
