About Me

I am a university student studying accounting and finance, and at the same time I work for a charitable organization during vacations. The charitable organization helps disadvantaged children have access to education. Since I am the oldest in my family, I support my family as well. I have seven brothers. I own a taxi which allows me to support my family's needs as well as my own. The taxi is our only source of revenue because my father is only employed as a simple driver with a monthly revenue of 50,000 FCFA (USD 110) per month, and my mother does not work outside the home. I am applying for a loan because my own finances are limited: my aunt who is very dear to me paid for my education has had a serious accident and I paid for her medical care. Unfortunately the cost of her medical care drained my bank account, and I am left short of cash. My problem is that my taxi's motor needs to be replaced within fifteen days; otherwise I risk a serious breakdown. I have also paid for my studies with the money that I earn. Thank you for your kind understanding, as I cannot tell you everything unless I spend many days writing.

My Business

I have a transport business named Barry21, which earns revenue of 280,000 FCFA (USD 617) per month. I had been planning to buy a new car, before having this problem (i.e. breakdown of the current vehicle) because my goal is to build one of the biggest transport businesses in Dakar city, or even in all of Senegal.

Loan Proposal

I would like to use this loan to buy a new taxi, because with two vehicles it will be much easier for me to earn enough to make my loan repayment comfortably and I will thus not get in the way of others who need Zidisha in order to advance their businesses. I also thank those who placed their confidence in my for my first Zidisha loan. If I do not manage to post comments very often, it is because the electricity service is often down in Dakar at the moment. I count on you all in order to realize my dream. I am already halfway down the path to success, and in my eyes now all that is thanks to Zidisha and its partners. Thanks for everything.

      Bonjour M. Barry,

      J'ai traduit vos commentaires en anglais pour les prêteurs anglophones. Je suis désolée que je n'ai pas fait cela plus tôt et je vous encourage de faire une nouvelle demande si vous la pensez bien. Cordialement,

    Good evening, right now I'm waiting for a miracle in the time that is left. I hope I can express myself this way. But I will continue believing to the end, because for me Zidisha is a miracle and I expect that it is the same for others that benefit from your support. Thank you everybody.

    Thank you very much everyone, and most of all don't hesitate to come back to complete the remaining amount, since without it I will not benefit from this money that you have placed in my care. I assure you that I am very anxious to benefit from this loan since it is crucial for me and my employer. Thank you.

    Hello, we are at 31%, so I repeat that there is still a lot to fund since we only have two days left. I hope you can understand my concern. Thank you.

    Good evening, there are only two days left to raise 71% of the loan, and for all of those who want to see this total reached, this is the moment. I hope sincerely that this is the second and last request for this loan. Zidisha, I count on you for this loan. You are the only family I have in matters of finance. I am asking from my heart that you support me, since I am very far from my total and I don't have long to wait. Thank you for your understanding.

    Goodnight, it is 6 percent like the last time. I am waiting for you, and your questions or suggestions are also always welcome. A project with a monthly turnover of about 250,000 FCFA is not easy to obtain, so know that with your help it will be well used.

    Thilo, you started funding my investment, thank you very much, and adding another amount as well would give me much pleasure. Klunpa01, thank you, you are the person who trusted the most in me and I hope that others will do so too. Good night.

    Thank you very much for answering my plea and I ask that others please come. Most of all, I assure poulo87 that his money is well invested, because with this money you are supporting the well-being of two families and helping a young worker and his patron to continue their investment. Thank you!

    Hello, when I see the amount left compared to what I need, the fear of not finding enough investors crosses my mind.
