    The amount is a bit high for me with the fact that I have just invested the loan into the business and it will take some time to generate more funds. The moment the business picks up I will definitely raise it.

    First I would wish to appologize to my esteemed lenders for skipping my loan payment schedule for some time due to the business low performance over a period time. But it has picked up well and I am determined to complete my loan by 27th October 2017 and looking forward for more of your support in future.

    The school has picked well and I also would wish to complete the payment on the set date of 27th Oct 2017.

    Dear James,

    Please also be advised that for the second loan and all subsequent loans, each borrower is required to post a photo of himself (or herself) as the main profile photo. You are welcome to post your "Star of David" image as a secondary photo on your Discussion page; however, please post a photo of *yourself* at the top of the page, instead (preferably of you in your classroom), at your very earliest opportunity. Failure to do so can result in future loan applications being expired or loans pending disbursement to be delayed until you fulfill the requirement. Please make sure your entire face is clearly visible in the photo that you post.

    Thank you so much,
    Laurie
    The Zidisha Team

    Hello,

    The inquiry you recently posted here has been removed.

    Please use the "Support Ticket" feature in the "Help" section of your Zidisha account to communicate with Zidisha's Administrative Staff.

    Most lenders are not on Staff and cannot help you with anything administrative.

    The Discussion page is for you to update your lenders about the progress of your education and/or business (and other aspects of your life if you wish to share more, and about their lives, too, if they wish to share). It also is a place for your Volunteer Mentor to post information, when necessary, that you and/or your lenders need to know.

    However, anything having to do with disbursements, payments, your credit limit, all technical problems on the website (including but not limited to: posting photos or comments), your ineligibility or eligibility to become or to remain a Volunteer Mentor, etc., must be communicated via the new "Support Ticket" system located on the "Help" page of your Zidisha account.

    Other than that, if you ever have any log-in problems, then please send an email to "[email protected]" with "Cannot Log In" (without the quotation marks) placed in the Subject line of your email. Please use email for log-in problems ONLY. (All other borrower issues are handled via the new "Support Ticket" system.)

    Thank you for your cooperation, and best wishes! :-)

Thank you all for support I trust that we will partner together to help in this noble cause My God bless you all.
