Loan Proposal

Second Freelance camera
Background
I have been a freelancer for the last 5 years, and Zidisha has been very helpful to me.
They have financed two of my projects most notable one is the freelance camera project.
I bought a freelance camera, I have been using it to take photos for events and get paid for it. I have not been able to rent it out because of trust issues, and with the camera I was able to repay my loan fully and with 100% repayment rate
So for my second project I would like to buy a more powerful camera to enable me to be able to cover events better and for me to be able to hire another photographer to help .
The new camera ,a Canon 700d will enable me to capture videos better and photos too.

The camera will cost ksh 54,000 locally. The Ksh 38,000 I will get from this loan will partially finance buying the camera, and I will add the remaining amount ksh 16,000 from my saving.

I will use the camera to cover events, take videos for events and for YouTube , use the camera to build my online photography portfolio. Having some experience in this market now, I will be able to repay my loan fully and on time like I paid the other loan.

Thank you for helping finance my last project, and am sure this project will be a success like my previous project.
Best Regards
Alpha Kitonga
