About Me

I am a young Senegalese who lived for a long time in the Gambia. I came to Dakar in 2001 to join my mother who has been living there for more than fifteen years. I'm single with no children. Currently, I live with my sisters and my mother at Parcelles Assainies Unite 17. My father emigrated to Italy 15 years ago. My parents are originally from Casamance. I have four sisters and we are renting our place. I am involved in community-based organizations in my neighborhood and I participated as a football player in my neighborhood football team, I played for 4 years.

My Business

I provide services. I rent chairs and tarps for ceremonies. I rent the tarp for 20 000 FCFA per day and 100 FCFA for the chairs. Currently, I have 200 chairs and 5 tarps that I rent on average once a week. The Zidisha loan will be used to purchase chairs for rent and three tarps to meet the demand and I intend to buy a hi-fi system for rent for ceremonies like baptism, wedding, seminar, etc…

Loan Proposal

I work in event management. I rent chairs, tarps, and tables for ceremonies. With this loan I would like to purchase 20 chairs that will be rented for 1000000FCFA, a tarp that will be rented for 50000FCFA, and tables that will be rented for 1000000FCFA. This loan will increase my business’ equipment capacity.

    Dear Lenders,

    We have just received a repayment from Mr. Signate and he thinks he may be able to make another by the end of the month. Thanks for your patience as we continue to work with Mr. Signate to regularize his repayments! Thanks for your continued support of Zidisha's mission!

    Sincerely,
    Paige

    Given the difficulties of my project with market I soon not have and rental of chairs and tarps that do not work as I'd suggest asking you to give me a change to the amount of my payment monthly so I count on your understanding for this change so that I can no longer afford to miss out on payments

    I want to lengthen my repayment for two months because my business is not good and as you know I'm in event planning and as my figure depends on others who request services sector for some time does not work well I know you will understand me for me by my two actiivités returns to normal so I can make my repayments normally.
