About Me

I am Benard Onyango. I hv successfully applied for four loans and would like to apply for my fifth loan to pay my son's school fee. I have successfully applied loan for the two orphans to pay for their school fees. the eldest is currently in attachment and the younger is in form three now but he was lucky to get sponsorship. My son is currently in form four and am still left with a balance of around ksh. 44,000 for the reminder of the year.

My Business

The requested amount will cater for his school fees and other expenses for the whole year.. I have faith my son will perform very well because his performance for the last years has been great and he is hard working too. As aparent the only thing i had promised my son is education.I will repay my loan as i had been doing.

Project Proposal

My name is Benard, the loan am requesting will enable me finish the house am building in the village to accommodate the total orphans I have lived with for more than ten years now. They have become part of my life since they have no parents nor place to call home. Disciplined and very focused. Some are on top of their classes and that makes me feel proud..I lost my job more than 5year now but I never lost the urge to help. I still have appetite to help and make sure they succeed in life and fulfil their dreams with the little I get.
Some well wishers have come in to assist with school fees and this is what has kept me soldering on with the boys. No giving up. They will succeed.
Thank you
Benard

    Hello zidisha members,

    Thank you for funding my loan to help total orphans I have been supporting for many years. Am supporting the boys out of good heart to help them fulfill their dreams. So the loan you have funded plus my job as an Uber driver will change life for these boys I believe so. Two of them are already working.

    Am planning to repay loan through my job as an Uber driver. Willing heart will never fail.

    Thank you members for your support.

    Regards
    Benard

    Hi zidisha,
    To my funders. Thank you so much for choosing to walk this journey with me. The loan will help me finish the house for the orphans to find a place they call home. Part of it will help clear fees arrears for the boys. Some of the boys were left orphans aged seven years and now they are grown ups so am not ready to give up on them at this time even though am struggling but your help and understanding helps me keep going.

    Thank you so much
    Regards
    Benard
