"I spent my third on a tailoring machine for 10,000 KES and paid a Fee of 3,000 KES to re-train myself and sharpen my tailoring skills. I had been trained for 6 months only and earned basic skills before getting married then I discontinued. I always wanted to resume my training but my husband had no money. I have been dreaming of the time when I would complete my training and become a professional. I thank GD for providing an opportunity for me, even after a lapse of 7 years. After buying the machine, I attached myself to a Professional Tailor that I know, who guides me on a daily basis. Since I am not a beginner, I even get to serve some of our clients, and I am paid 200 KES per day. I am very thankful because I am a Trainee but at the same time I earn. I have even put on weight and my family feeds better than before, you should come see the difference in our appearance. I also bought a heifer for 15,000 KES that will serve as my seed to be multiplied towards the education of our children in the near future." (Occupation: Motorcycle or bicycle taxi)
