About Me

Hello, my name is Khady Faye. I am a practicing muslim and live with my mother, brother and niece. At the moment, I am responsible for them because my sister who works cannot manage everything, she needs my help. Now, I want to work but I don’t have the means to finance myself so that I can work. It’s my mother and my father who educated me well but my father has since passed away.

My Business

Now I work in a training school called ICM, institute of commerce and management, but during my vacations I do not work. It’s for this reason I would like to change my workplace. It’s at the Regional Council of Dakar where I propose the opening of my new restaurant. It’s for this that I ask for a loan from Zidisha to open this restaurant. I have already borrowed twice at FDA (microlending institution) - 350,000 CFA (roughly $700) and 650,000 CFA (roughly $1,300) – but the interest rates that they requested were too high. It’s for this reason I stopped working with them after the repayment of my second loan.

Loan Proposal

I would like to travel to Maritania to buy the fabric needed.

Maintenant je travaille avant dans une ecole de formation qui s’appelle ICM Institut de Commerce et Management mais pendant les vacances je ne travaille pas. c’est pour cela je voulais changer le lieux de travail. C’est à la conseilles regionale de Dakar c’est la ba qu’on m’a proposé pour que j’ouvre le resto. C’est pour cela je demande a zidisha de me faire un pret pour que je peux ouvrir le resto comme on me propose. J’ai déjà emprunté deux crédits a FDA de 350,000cfa et 650,000cfa mais les taux d’interets qu’on a posé sur le prêt c’etait trop élevés.. C’est pour cela j’ai quitté la ba après le deuxieme remboursement.
