Hello, my name is Martha, and I am a 50-year-old single mother living in Central Kenya. Unfortunately, I was unable to obtain a formal education, which means that I lack diverse employable skills. As a result, I have to rely on manual jobs in the coffee plantations to provide for my family of three children. However, taking care of my family on my own has proven to be a challenging task. The money I earn from my manual jobs is insufficient to pay for my children's school fees, leading them to drop out of school and take up manual jobs on the farms for survival. Therefore, I am kindly appealing to well-wishers to help me achieve my dream of breaking the cycle of poverty and ensuring a brighter future for my family. I aspire to establish a small family business that focuses on goat rearing. This business will not only guarantee our sustenance but also create a foundation for a better life. With your support, my family and I will be able to access improved food security and much-needed healthcare, which will significantly enhance the quality of our lives. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. to read my story.
