Linda Ikeji
the queen of Blogging mentioned on her blog , that, she is about to embark on another of her numerous
philanthropist services…..The “'I'd Rather Be Self-made” project part 2, solely targeted
at empowering women entrepreneurs who, for lack of capital may have decided to
abandon their dreams.
Linda is
here telling you, that; that dream is still very much possible, and can be
achieved. Linda Ikeji will personally
mentor young girls with dreams and aspirations and help some of them start up
small scale businesses.
In Linda’s
own words “'I'd Rather Be Self-made' is not a foundation, or an organization (I
can't handle that - blogging takes too much of my time), it's just me and some
young ladies meeting whenever we can, inspire each other, exchange business
ideas, and if I feel someone has a great business idea and it's not going to
cost too much to start the business, I will personally finance it. Not as a
loan, it's 100% to the person. I'm looking at N250k to N1million per person,
depending on how great the business idea is. If you need less, you will get the
money faster...:-). I'll also use LIB to promote your businesses. All I want in
return is for you to work hard, make a success of your business and pay it
forward...i.e help others. And if you ever see me on the street after you make
it, you can say hello or give me a hug...:-)” .
According to Linda, Phase 1 has been
completed with 15 girls being beneficiaries and Phase 2 is happening soon, and
she is planning to double the money given out this year, though a date is yet
to be fixed,

So, If you’re between 18 and 26, Females only, you are looking for
inspiration, you want to start a business and need financing or already have a
business but need more money to expand, or you just need business advice, then
you should be a part of this.
Hurry Up!!! Get a proposal ready! Tell us (Linda
Ikeji I’d Rather Be Selfmade” project) what you want to do and how much
you need to do it and be ready to face a panel to defend your business idea.
More update will be given soon, when any
official information concerning the project is given.
Don’t hoard
this information; remember to share with a friend too.
Well-done
Linda! More power to you.
