About Me

Am 25 years old in a family of five, mother, two brothers and one sister. Am a wife and a proud of mother of two daughters. I love singing and music. I was also a member of praise and worship in my church before I had my first born. With my passion with music I also learned how to DJ. My hobbies are to swim and travel even though I do not enjoy my hobbies due to financial constraint and focus more on being a parent but I plan to do so in future.

My Business

My source of income mainly comes from farming that we do with my husband but also I have a small salon that I want to expand soon to be offering more services. We do horticulture farming and fishing. The farming business has enables us to be able to pay rent and utility bills. Being a seasonal business we do save and also depend on my salon business

Loan Proposal

When I get the loan I will be able to improve my hair dressing project in the following ways: I will use the loan to add up a total sum of 160 usd that I have saved to make it a sum of 312 usd to be able to purchase a hair drier. This loan will not only make an impact to my life but to one lucky lady that I will be hiring as a hair dresser. This will enable me to get more clients and make the client not to have to travel to town to get their hair done. I have decided to make this closer as there is only one salon in the area and this makes more waiting time for clients and I believe this will also ease on having to wait or going to town.

    Hello zidisha team I know I have been late with the payment and am really working hard to make sure I have paid the balance in good time to compensate the lost time as I know there are many other also that will benefit from my loan repayment therefore I have decided to increase my loan payment per week to achieve all that .

    Thank you zidisha team for the loan. I have been late for this loan now for 2 weeks I guess as it has been a very bad month for our family. After loosing my cousin it has been an emotional time that am still dealing with and I had to use some money on the funeral arrangement but all that done now am back on truck and I believe I will be able to make my payment on time now with no delay expected. Thank you

    Hello I don't normally lend large amounts to one person but I imagine the school is waiting for payment, and this might have been a worry. All the best

    Mercy,

    I am not sure I understand whether your loan application is towards buying fish or salon supplies (and school fees).

        Mercy, you should update your "My Story" and "About My Business" sections. They make it seem like you're still requesting a loan for buying the fish.

    Thank you zidisha for the support so far. Am really looking forward for my loan to be fully funded as I have few days left for the item to be sold to someone else and was getting it at the cheapest price as am buying it from someone else. Be blessed and once more thank you for the support.
