I understand you are the volunteer mentor for Fredrick Ondicho Kirera. He is several months behind on his payments. In fact, he has only made one tiny payment this year. I'd appreciate it if you could check in with him and find out what the issue is. Thanks.

Hello, Mr. Gitonga
Do you know anything about Geoffrey Omangi, who is so much in arrears? I know you have been asked before, and I am sorry to disturb you again, but if you can help, I would be grateful.

Fredrick Ondicho Kirera. He is several months behind on his payments. In fact, he hasn't made any payments as yet nor is he responding to questions. I'd appreciate it if you could check in with him and find out what the issue is. Thanks.

  Hallo,
  I am sorry for the late reply but the member listed above is new to me. I was assigned Freddrick Ondicho to my profile without my knowledge. Its not just Fredrick, i have many more and i raised the issue to Zidisha management. However, i will try to contact him on that matter. I am sorry for the inconvinince.

    I'd appreciate any efforts you can make on his lenders' behalf.
    
    It makes no sense to me that Zidisha would assign lenders to mentors. It should be the mentor volunteering to be an additional contact for a borrower. Preferably someone they know well.

    Fredrick Ondicho Kirera has made one payment. It was about 1/2 a months payment when he is a number of months behind. Please mention to him that he needs to bring his loan completely up to date & keep it that way. Thanks.

Mr. Gitonga,

I'm sorry to disturb you, but Geoffery Omangi seems to be one of your mentees. I wrote to him on Jan. 30 and have still not received a response. He has not made a single repayment and his full loan will come due on Feb, 15, just 5 days from now.

Would you be able to contact him and find out what is going on?

Thank you,
Cris

• Martin    Mar 17, 2014

  HI Cris,
  
  Sorry for the late reply. About Geoffery Omangi, i do not know him personally. My profile shows that i am his volunteer mentor but i regret that was without my knowledge. I contacted Zidisha management on the issue. However, i will make a step of contacting him and inquire on the matter.

What's going in with Kahawa Wendani?? You are his mentor... He didn't repay nothing yet...!

Hi Zidisha.
I wish to reschedule my loan payment to next month. My business is going on well but i have not started leaping off the profit. i have been on holiday and i did not concentrate much on the businesses that i implemented using the second loan. Within this month i will work hard and all will be alright. Please consider my request. I will resume next month. Thank you

Hi Zidisha,
I take this opportunity to apply for the second loan. I have indicated in my profile how i will use it. I kindly request you to contribute to my loan request. Thank you in advance.

Hi Zidisha Family,
Once more i hope you are all well. I am happy that i have been able to repay my loan on time. The loan has really played a big part in the business that i had initiated. My rabbit business somehow encountered some challenges because of a disease though that has not made me go at loss, all has been stagnant. This made me reschedule my loan repayment calender. I had some savings in my bank account though in a fixed account and when the period was over i opted to withdraw and repay my loan. Again i thank you lenders for the kindness and patience. Carry on with the good work.

Martin    Nov 8, 2013

I request to reschedule my loan at this moment though it was not my wish. My plan was to repay all the amount by this month but it seems my plans did not go through. I am supposed to pay a certain amount tomorrow though that will not be possible. I target that by December 9 i will settle the whole loan or part of it. Accept my reschedule proposal

Martin    Oct 12, 2013

Hi Zidisha, I hope you are all doing great. I am doing fine back here in Kenya and still doing my final year studies at the university. So far my rabbit business has had a little blow that i am working hard to recover. There was an outbreak of a disease that affected my rabbits and several died. I contacted a veterinary who gave medication and the remaining are doing well. This month i was financially unstable and could not make to pay the 1000. I will resume next month and if possible compensate for this month. Thank you

HI Zidisha Team,
How are you all guys? I am doing good back here in Kenya. My business too is doing good and as planned. I am happy that i have been at a position to repay my loan little by little and soon i will be done.
Also i am happy to work with Zidisha as a volunteer mentor. I have been able to reach a number of people back here in my country and i hope they will all co-operate if they join Zidisha.
Thanks again zidisha Lenders for all the good work.

HALLO ZIDISHA COMMUNITY
I hope you are all having a good time so far. For me i am doing good. I am happy for Zidisha since i qualified to be a Volunteer Mentor. I feel honored. I am looking forward to work with Zidisha though my schedule is really busy now that i am doing my internship. I am sure by August when my Internship is over i will be able to concentrate more on Zidisha.
About my project. all is going well. My rabbits are growing big day by day. I will post the photo sometime. Also i thank all Zidisha lenders who have enabled more and more people grow. Have a nice time you all
Regards
Martin

Martin    Jul 1, 2013

Hi,
Its almost one month since i received my loan and i am so happy that my project is growing day by day. I have had friends approaching me and asking me more about my business and they cant believe that it is through Zidisha that i have made such great steps. I have advised them to take a point to apply for the loan and i wish them well as they apply. I made a point of applying as a Volunteer Mentor and my hope is that my application will go through so that i can help more of my friends around my area also have a taste of success through Zidisha.
Regards
Martin
Mentor
