About Me

my name is Daniel Maina am a born again christian having born and brought up in priesthood family. I was born in Kajiado District together with my two brothers and three sisters. Unfortunately our life was disrupted after the 1992 crashes that forced us to relocate to Kiambu District Kenya. my parents struggled and I was able to join primary school and secondary school. I deed my KCSE (kenya certificate of primary education) and later i went to Secondary Education, which i completed in 2007. since there was no money to proceed, I went for Driving course. in addition having not completed my fees arrears, my results were with held by the institution hence i could not join any tertiary Institution or format work. Thus I decided to join the Information Sector where I trained in Firbre work. And after completing the course I started my own workshop where i earn for living. I am looking forward to change my business for better future.

My Business

Having completed my course I decided to start a small workshop in Naivasha Town which has been running for the last 2 years. In my workshop I repair Motorbikes, helmants, cars farberies and also repair tanks both plastic and stone tanks.I also make new Items eg. pins (Instruments used in awana game for kids) e.t.c. I am looking forward to stock my business with the materials that i use in order for me to invest maximum profit. the greatest challenge i have is scarcity of materials that i use since they are expensive and are not locally available and therefore forced to get them from Nairobi. Insipite of all the challanges I have withstand them and hope things will be better.

Loan Proposal

I will use the second loan to expand my working place because i have been using a small room. this money will help me increase some new types of stocks in business and still upgrade the level of working and security. I have been trying to provide my clients with new applications of fibers and try to come up with some new services as make customers enjoy working with me. Am hoping if you will led me the this amount of money my business will not be the same again. Thank you in advance.

    Thank-you for continuing to work on making your repayments. If you believe you are going to have a real struggle to catch up, you can reschedule the payment calendar to create an easier plan for yourself. (And to help you raise loans in the future, as past on-time repayments are considered by many lenders on Zidisha.)

    I hope that you remain in good health.

      Hello Mr. Maina -
      I am glad to be one of your partners in sucess with my small portion of your second loan. As I ride a bicycle, I wonder if you also repair bicycles at your shop? Fortunately, I have been able to ride all summer without anything going wrong, but it's always a worry if the road is very rough.

    2 Corinthians 9:10-12
    Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God

    Hebrews 6:10
    God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
    Philippians 4:6-7
    Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
    Luke 6:38 - Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

    Matthew 25:35-40
    For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'

    Hi, am well and good here running my business and creating ideas on how to lift my business. I have been working with less resources and am truly working hard to manage my business in order to make it grow firm. the little business occupation (working area) that i currently use is small and am planning to enlarge it. I really appreciate the loan you gave me because it took me to another level that i could not be able to be. Am now well and hoping to work with Zidisha in every opportunity i will have in life. What i wish to you is that the Lord almighty bless you as you continue supporting other borrowers who are in need for now.
