Evelyn Mwende, 37, has lived in Kibera since 1994 and joined Village of Love in 2011. She has become a role model for entrepreneurship amongst the young mothers in the neighbourhood, who try to emulate her. She supports 2 birth children and 1 orphaned child.  Currently she runs a tuck shop selling cosmetics and Rastafarian caps that she makes herself. A bicycle donation from Wheels for Africa enables her to transport her stock with ease. Before she started this business she would brew and sell alcohol in her home, which put her at loggerheads with the police and the neighbours. Women would quarrel with her saying that she was ruining them health wise and pocket wise. Evelyn has taken four loans amounting to $360, and has always paid them back within the required time. She aspires to opening a bigger shop that sells refrigerated drinks and that hosts a Salon. (Information recorded in 2013)
