About Me

Am 25 years old in a family of five, mother, two brothers and one sister. Am a wife and a proud of mother of two daughters. I love singing and music. I was also a member of praise and worship in my church before I had my first born. With my passion with music I also learned how to DJ. My hobbies are to swim and travel even though I do not enjoy my hobbies due to financial constraint and focus more on being a parent but I plan to do so in future.

My Business

My source of income mainly comes from farming that we do with my husband but also I have a small salon that I want to expand soon to be offering more services. We do horticulture farming and fishing. The farming business has enables us to be able to pay rent and utility bills. Being a seasonal business we do save and also depend on my salon business

Loan Proposal

My daughter is closing for the holiday and for his new school for every end of term they get to have to go with the school mate for an education tour around Kenya. The end of year tour was also successful made by your investments. The deadline for the tour is in 5 days so I hope I will be able to beat the deadline by your support. I thank you in advance for putting a smile in my daughter. Also I thank you very much for your support in my business so far because without you I would not have made this far

    Hello zidisha team I know I have been late with the payment and am really working hard to make sure I have paid the balance in good time to compensate the lost time as I know there are many other also that will benefit from my loan repayment therefore I have decided to increase my loan payment per week to achieve all that .

    Thank you zidisha team for the loan. I have been late for this loan now for 2 weeks I guess as it has been a very bad month for our family. After loosing my cousin it has been an emotional time that am still dealing with and I had to use some money on the funeral arrangement but all that done now am back on truck and I believe I will be able to make my payment on time now with no delay expected. Thank you

    Hello I don't normally lend large amounts to one person but I imagine the school is waiting for payment, and this might have been a worry. All the best

    Mercy,

    I am not sure I understand whether your loan application is towards buying fish or salon supplies (and school fees).

    • Mercy    Sep 14, 2014

      The loan part of it as indicated will be used for school fees and schools supplies for my daughter and the other remaining which will be 35 usd I will use it in buying salon supplies

        Mercy, you should update your "My Story" and "About My Business" sections. They make it seem like you're still requesting a loan for buying the fish.

          Thank you very much I have change the my story and about my business to avoid any further confusion

I apologize for the inconvenience caused

    Thank you zidisha for the support so far. Am really looking forward for my loan to be fully funded as I have few days left for the item to be sold to someone else and was getting it at the cheapest price as am buying it from someone else. Be blessed and once more thank you for the support.
