About Me

I am Kenyan male youth from Nyeri county single, from a family of 7,mother, father, two brothers and two sisters. I am a self driven person with high personality, educated to the university level where I specialised in online research writing. My achievements depends on my commitment, dedication and honesty. I believe on the principal that everything is possible through meaningful involvement and settings smart objectives and by following them one by one.
I get involved in positive linkages for a common goal and united for a team spirit. I live in Nairobi but the farm I put up my project is the family home, where my parents live. I have always been dreaming of being a great professional farmer and recently took an initiative in farming. Now I want to add my income by doing commercial fish farming.
Because the market is ready with Zidisha loan I believe I will move the mountains within months. So help me to live this dream by supporting me with your loan. Thank you Zidisha.

My Business

As I have mentioned above my achievements depends on my commitment, dedication and honesty. I believe on the principal that everything is possible through meaningful involvement and settings smart objectives and follow them one by one. I get involved in positive linkages for a common goal and united for a team spirit. I live in Nairobi but the farm I put up my project is the family home, where my parents live. I have always been dreaming of being a great professional farmer and recently took an initiative in farming.
I have been involved with quails farming and it was of great success before I was keeping broiler chickens. We had put a family business of 400 quails of which we were selling eggs and also incubating. Now I wanted to add my income by doing commercial fish farming. Because the market is ready and not much exploited in our country.
My dream is to be the largest fish producer in Kenya and with Zidisha loan I believe I will move the mountains within months. So help me to live this dream by supporting me with your loan. Thank you Zidisha.

Loan Proposal

The loan that I will be given will be used in building a fish pond and buy fingerlings and a paper plus a wire mesh to cover the fish pond. This is an initiative that I have started as fish farming in not that fully exploited in Kenya while the market is in demand of fish. Because I want to be the largest fish producer in our area I believe this will be of an impact to the community and also to the young people as this will create more jobs for young people. Am planning with zidisha by the end of the year I will have constructed more fish pond and create job for 50 young men as I have a vision to be creator of job opportunity and help eradicate poverty. This dream will be achieved by zidisha as I believe.

      Dear Jonathan,

      I apologize for the confusion regarding your account. The reason your fundraising has been expired is because there was a bug in your original loan that caused it to appear as fully paid when you rescheduled. Because it is not yet paid in full, you are unable to post a new loan for fundraising.

      Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience!

      Best,
      Bayle, Country Liaison Manager
