My name is Agness Mwanza. I am a 38 year old single mother of 3 children, 2 boys and 1 girl. I grew up in the Southern part of Zambia in a place called Mazabuka and only came to Lusaka in 2001 when my aunt got me so that she could sponsor me in school. I chose the business of selling charcoal because I discovered that not much losses are recorded in this business and charcoal is on high demand. This business helps me fend for my family.
“Thank you Spark Zambia and Join the Journey for this wonderful program. Am so glad to be part of it because I know that my business will grow.”
