I do transport business (popularly known as boarder boarder) ,( kinyozi) barber shop ,take photographs , Cell Phone repair and farming. From the above businesses I get the following income transport 12000 per month, kinyozi 9000, photograph 21000 , cell phone repair 6000 and farming 300000 per year so the total annual income is about 800000

Loan Proposal

First is to thank zidisha for lending me with last 2 loans. The purpose of applying third loan is because I want to expand my business by buying photo printing machine. This will reduce
travelling fare of going to town to print photos. I also want to
buy computers where people from my area will be accessing
internet (Cyber Cafe). I will also like to buy phone accessories
and airtime from different companies.

    Dear Lenders,

    My name is Bayle and I am a Country Liaison Intern with Zidisha. Earlier this week Samuel noticed a discrepancy in his repayments, and alerted us to the fact that we had not posted a payment he made on June 11th of this year. We checked our accounts and found out that he is indeed correct- there was a data entry error made, and this payment was not correctly reflected on his account. In order to remedy this, we posted the payment with the original date it was made, so our accounts will still match up. When looking at his repayment schedule, you will notice payment dates out of order, which reflects this payment.

    Thank you Samuel for alerting us to this problem!

    Poverty is lack of necessities in life it’s the state of being poor. It is sometimes caused by laciness crime offences and natural calamities like drought, fire, flood or even tribal clashes which later results into internally displacement and destruction of earlier owned properties.
    The most affected people are the youth and the middle aged groups who have children going to school. Once these two groups are affected or striked by poverty they become irresponsible and don’t care parents who neglet their children. Such parents tend to loose direction in life and child rearing, make their children be their labourers, beggars in the streets and also thieves. These parents also abuse their children, emotional, spiritually and even physically. As we all know that parents are the first teachers of children during early years
